If you need to narrow down your search you can use filters like Last &amp; First names, Telephone numbers, or you can select patients using the patient number ranges. For the patient # range search use the question mark in place of digits. For example, search pattern &#8220;1002?&#8221; will find all patients with numbers ranging from 100200 to 100299.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3)<\/strong> Another feature that our users asked about is the ability to <strong>re-order procedures in quotations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Using drag-and-drop technique you can drag selected procedure ( or several procedures) to the place you want them to appear in quote.

Sometimes, it was useful, but most of the times it was a nuisance, like in search for item code 281. We have added a new checkbox <strong>&#8220;Extended search&#8221;<\/strong> which indicates lookup in the detailed descriptions.
