Passport Release Notes – 08.06.2015

Release Date: August 6, 2015 at 10:00p.m. CT

Change Overview:

eCareNEXT

User Interface Improvements, Queue Manager New feature improvements to user interface in the eCareNEXT Queue Manager.   This does not change the functionality and does not alter the behavior of the queue manager.

Instead, these feature improvements now groups those fields into a set of “Vertical Tabs” which correspond to each of the product chevrons within eCareNEXT.  Previously, these fields were loosely grouped into generic categories. For example, “Most Common,” “Patient,” “User,” and “Inquiry.”

By grouping these fields by specific product modules, the user interface, navigation, and ease of finding and applying filter information is improved. In other words, now all queue manager filters are grouped by product chevron using tabs on the left of the window. Clicking each tab will display all of the filters related to a specific product.  You may learn more about this change by clicking the below link.
