| 5607 | Recalls | The ability to 'Dismiss Selected' recalls has been added to the recall screen.
All ticked recalls will be moved to the dismissed batch under recall history. |
| 5838 | Dispense | A new branch setting, 'Sunglasses Rx Sales Group', allows frames (marked as sunglasses in the stock system) to have a different sales group applied to them when sold through the dispense screen (allowing a different VAT / fee structure to be applied). When sold through the till screen the frame sales group is applied.
|
| 6052 | Stock | A new 'Favourites Only' toggle has been added to screens where stock is displayed, allowing only favourites to be displayed and removing all other stock from view.

|
| 6253 | Examinations | Changes have been made to how the system handles having multiple tabs open for the same examination. If a user tries to edit an exam that is already being edited, they will be redirected to a read-only version with a message at the bottom of the screen showing which user is currently editing the record.
If the same user opens an exam twice they will also see an unlock button letting them unlock the tab they are in and carry on editing - any other tabs will be set to read only. |
| 6267 | Examinations | The file created by the Thomson phoropter export has been changed so that it always uses the same name i.e Phoropter.csv, making it compatible with the phoropter import in the Thomson software. |
| 6271 | Transactions | A single contact lens can now be sold through the till. |
| 6277 | Examinations | All patient files are now available in the Images / Sketches component, PDF files will open in the system viewer.
|
| 6285 | Appointments | Appointment confirmation emails can now be set to include an iCalendar (.ics) file as an attachment. The ics file allows a patient to quickly add their appointment booking to their calendar.
|
| 6296 | Contact Lens | When starting an aftercare where the patient has a primary and secondary pair assigned, the popup now displays the lens prescription to aid the user.
|
6306 6243 | Stock Take |

Fixes
# | Category | Summary |
| 6243 | Stock | Addresses an issue where stock take values could change once completed, if you go back and edit an old stock take. |
| 6276 | eGOS | Addresses an issue where the PVN could not be selected if only one existed. In this scenario, the PVN will not be automatically populated. |
| 6304 | Appointments | Addresses an issue where changing the reason of an existing appointment would unsuspend the recalls when it shouldn't. |
| 6323 | Transactions | Addresses an issue where 'Edit' button in the transaction table didn't take you to the receipt. |
| 6309 | Recall | Addresses an issue where the user could send recalls to deceased patients by re-sending from the recall history section. |
