Medisoft Version 12 Service Pack 1 - What was Fixed?

The following items were corrected in Medisoft Version 12 Service Pack 1:

Billing and Collections
  • In the Collections List, if you save a tickler without selecting a chart number, the message has been changed to read "Field Chart Number" must have a value".
