Enhancements
- General User Interface updates:
- Many options on toolbars other than the basic Add/Edit/Delete are grouped into “Actions” dropdown tool to better group various options.

- “Print Big Picture Report” options also added to toolbar on Office Staff calendar.

- When editing Call Types (Services) in User Defined you can now specify multiple additional qualifications that can perform this qualification.
- Sync to Outlook Calendar no longer syncs back any changes to Schedules in Companion. Only changes to Tasks and Appointments will now sync back to Companion from Outlook.

- Added “Caregivers and Office Staff” scenario in Actual Hours tab.
- Added advanced Schedule filtering options (i.e. Date Range/Call Types/Attributes/Status) to the Actual Hours tab. (These options were always available on the Schedule Review and Finalize tabs, but not in Actual Hours.)
- Grids and Reports
- Daily Review Report improvements:
- Performance improvements
- Separate sub totals by Call Type (Service) Status (e.g. Active vs. Unavailable) in the Summary of Scheduled Hours section. Also show totals for Scheduled, Actual, Billable and Payable hours.

- Launching the Caregiver Master Report from the Main Module Reports menu wasn’t opening the Reporting Module.
- Daily Review Report improvements:
- Added a check when adding a cloud user account to a new office staff person to try and make sure that the office staff gets the proper username equal to their username and not with an “_2” etc. on the end when they’ve already existed as a different type of relationship in the system.
Bug Fixes
- General UI:
- Fixed an issue with the program remembering whether the checkbox column is turned on for a grid when switching between different tabs/grids.
- Fixed a display issue when re-editing the same Date-Specific Availability record after making it “Not a Work Day”.
- Fixed a row selection issue with data grids where if you clicked directly on the checkbox in a new row it wouldn’t actually select that row even though visually it appeared to.
- Fixed an issue with toggling the “Show schedules that do not have” option when filtering on Attributes in Schedule Review grids.
- Fixed an issue with the date filter displaying in the first tab when loading “Favourite” tabs in the Reporting Module.
- Main Module “My Calendar” preferences weren’t saving properly.
- Grids and Reports:
- Early/Late Arrival Time report showed the wrong text label for the Total line for each section when grouping the report by Date.
- Client Time Sheet report was excluding schedules missing a caregiver.
- Valid date ranges of Duties to Perform weren’t taken into effect on the Time Sheet Reports.
- “Generate Report” for Appointment, Task, Documented Events categories was throwing an error.
- Daily Review Report:
- Required Dates section(s) were including Inactive people.
- Required Dates section(s) now only shows expired dates against the correct relationship where they were added, where the same person exists in multiple places (e.g. both a Caregiver and an Office Staff)
- Billing & Payroll Exports:
- Fixed a rounding issue with the QuickBooks Online Billing export that could cause an invoice to fail to export.
- When exporting Billing to EZClaim, when hours are exported as multiple units it was also applying this multiplier to the number of units for any extra charges. (As amounts and units are exported separately to EZClaim without a rate, all invoice/claim totals would still be correct.)
- Fixed a minor issue with validating the QuickBooks export, where the validation would still require an External ID attached to the third party payer even if you used the QuickBooks ID override on the possible payer link to the client.
- When hours and units (extra charges) are grouped together during an EZClaim export, only the hours were being reported in the total “units” in EZClaim.
- Regular and Overtime records are no longer grouped separately in the EZClaim billing export. (Not that OT is ever used in Medicaid billing but it was technically wrong...)
- The selection of a QB Payroll Service Item on the Travel Time extra charge type (User Defined master list) did not have any effect and exporting payroll time data was just linking to the first matching rate it found.
- Fixed an issue with exporting the Date of Birth to Quickbooks during update of customer or employee demographic data during billing/payroll export.
- Fixed an issue with commas in the Responsible Party’s name causing columns to be shifted in the Home Care Pulse initial email.
- Import from Template database wasn’t working for Relationship (e.g. Client, Caregiver, etc.) and Event (e.g. Task, Appointment, etc.) categories in User Defined.
- Additional fix to Import button in User Defined Information to handle infrastructure update.
- “Hide Negative Scores” button on Quick Pick screen wasn’t working right.
