MAIN FEATURES

Improvements to the ‘Client and policy notes and appointments’ report accessed from ‘Reports -> Client Tab’ (or when using the ‘A selection of client and policy notes’ option when printing Notes).

• When saving a report layout that is set to ‘Pop-up on open’ you can specify a date range as an offset from today’s date. So for example you can have a pop-up report of all your Notes and Appointments from Today –1 day to Today +1 day when you open Durell in the morning.  You can also tick ‘Prompt for date range’ to allow those dates to be changed when the report opens.
• There is now a tick box to ‘Export to Excel’ so you can do further manipulation or ad hoc reporting on Appointments and Notes – for example an analysis of time elapsed between certain Actions. There is an additional option to ‘Exclude details from Excel layout’ which removes the ‘Details’ column, i.e. the body of the notes is not exported.

Various other improvements, additions and fixes have been made since the last update in October as outlined below.

Itemised List:-

• Improved data validation for ‘SMS Messaging’ integration with ‘Esendex’.
• Fixed an issue within a ‘Cashbook’ entry where the ‘Bulk reconciliation’ function was missing the option to ‘Only include Paid Items’.

• Two new user access rights added, ‘Bankbooks, client bank account’ and ‘Bankbooks, office bank account’ which control access to the client and office bank accounts.
