Posted March 27th, 2009 by Matt YoungThe OpenVPMS development team are pleased to announce that beta testing has been completed and the much anticipated version 1.3 release of the the OpenVPMS web application is now available for download.
This release contains many new features, the big one being the new enhanced graphical scheduler which was created according to the requirements of the OpenVPMS community with contributions by the enhanced scheduling group.
OpenVPMS is dependant on community contributions and community funds to pay for the development of these new features. You can support the community by getting involved in the discussion of the software in the forums and mailing lists and contributing your suggestions, feedback, and reporting any problems you are having with the software. OpenVPMS is not for profit. All raised funds are used for paying for development of the software and repayment of seed funding. If you would like to make a donation toward OpenVPMS you can donate via paypal. The software license requires that any practice using the software must purchase a subscription to use the software.
We are very pleased to provide this release. It marks a milestone in the development of OpenVPMS and we look forward to further contributions by the community.

My experiences with the new Enhanced Scheduling
Posted October 9th, 2008 by vetmpcostaHi everyone,
Sorry I've been quiet for a while. Tony and Tim have not! Don't forget to visit the Community->Enhanced Scheduling Group pages - I've updated the main post inviting for comment on the new functionality and also requesting people interested in contributing to the development financially to contact me via email.
So I've been playing with the new enhanced scheduling on the website and here are my impressions;
The look:
Is good. Clear and clean just like the OpenVPMS app to date.
New community area on the website.
Posted May 28th, 2008 by Matt YoungSome of you may have noticed the new menu item "Community" at the top of the page. This is a new resource where community members can collaborate and share their ideas on individual projects to do with OpenVPMS.
At the time of posting there are 3 groups:

Investigation Module - Working Group
Posted April 26th, 2008 by tony
We are seeking interested parties who wish to be involved in a working group to specify and/or help develop an Investigation module for OpenVPMS.
OpenVPMS already allows the storing of various investigation results but we believe it needs a more integrated approach to investigation management.
We see this including investigation ordering, work-flow management and the ability to automatically process electronically transmitted investigation orders and results to/from various internal and external service providers.
