This project is TWO Jiras in one as an enterprising user negotiated a packaging of the two features into one affordable deal! More so, then it was fully funded!!

Add support for preferred email addresses

Where a customer has multiple email addresses, it should be possible to denote one of those as the preferred address.
The preferred address should be displayed in the customer summary, and be selected by default when sending emails to customers.

JIRA : https://openvpms.atlassian.net/browse/OVPMS-1228

Display preferred phone number in customer summary

Currently, the customer summary displays the preferred phone number with HOME classification.
This should be changed to simply display the preferred phone number.

A facility for copying appointments has been requested. The requirements are as follows:

1. Appointments may be copied:

• within a schedule
• from one schedule to another
• to a schedule in a different schedule view

2. Appointments would be copied with Ctrl-C, and pasted one or more times with Ctrl-V.

3. Any appointment may be copied - the copied appointment will have Pending status

4. An edit dialog will be displayed if the pasted appointment:

• has an appointment type not linked to the current schedule
• overlaps an existing appointment

This project will enable appointment reminders to be automatically sent to customers via SMS.

• Reminders will be sent for Pending appointments, at a configurable time prior to their start.
• Reminders will be sent to customers that have a phone contact with Allow SMS ticked
• Reminder text may contain merged data from the appointment act e.g.:

"This is a reminder that you have an appointment with Fluffy at X time, X date."

Currently documents such as medical records or certificates will be emailed exactly as they print out. For those of us that use stationery with letterhead, this means our email attachments will look a bit bare and have limited information to indicate where the generated documents came from.

There has been discussion about how we might include the ability for our templates to know they are being emailed. This will allow us to include elements in our documents that only appear if the document is being emailed. eg. Colour logos, text etc It should make our emailed histories look a lot more professional.

This project will add support for recurring appointments.

Would it be possible to change the checkin process so that the very first screen is the patients weight followed by forms and notes.

The way that it works currently forms printed at checkin are printed with the patients previously recorded weight which is generally wrong. We have removed the patient weight field from our forms and manually record it but it would save a little time if the correct weight could be added to forms automatically.

Public pledges can be made to this forum topic or email me directly by clicking here (link only works in the forum).
Development will not commence until fully funded.

Forum: http://www.openvpms.org/forum/new-note-and-visit-button

Jira: https://openvpms.atlassian.net/browse/OVPMS-1087

This suggestion came from the recent Users Meeting.

The most common use of medical records is to add notes. If there is a note added without a visit (eg.Phone call etc) a Visit must first be created.

There was a request for a new button in Medical Records that allowed a user to create a New Visit & Note with one click.

i. The new Visit inherit the date from the Note. Default should be the current date.
ii. The Visit Reason will be left Blank.
iii. The focus should be in the Note box.
iv. The button should live in the Medical records space with New, Delete buttons etc. There is no need for a current selection to be current for this button to be visible.
