Open Patient Family (or other view) from external app?

Post by ajhalls » Wed Aug 19, 2020 3:08 pm

I have a 2 way texting application and am setting up a plugin to be able to pull up the active Open Dental patient in the texting application and wondered if it was possible to go the other way? Can I put a button within my app that can launch an Open Dental view?

Nevermind, I found it. Unless there is a better way, I will set up a bidirectional socket connection between the plugin and my app and then should be able to get there using:

Code: Select all

        var patient = FormOpenDental.CurPatNum; // or setting it from the external app
        OpenDental.GotoModule.GotoChart(patient);
