We have been using Open Dental since 09/2010. Is the Supply Inventory section something that is worth utilizing? Our dental supply staff member uses sticky notes and a clip board and seems to perform her task well. Thoughts, opinions please....
Thanks,

Re: Supply Inventory Module
I'm using it and I like it. Definitely an improvement over sticky notes and a clipboard. What I like best about it is that you can see when an item was added to the needed supplies. I also track our orders, so I can know the last time I purchased an item. We don't use it to track our current inventory levels, but we might consider that in the future.genebrabston wrote:We have been using Open Dental since 09/2010.

It would be really nice if the feature allowed you to tie items in the supplies needed to the actual inventory and orders, but that's not an option now.
Overall, I'd suggest using it.

are there any plans to update this feature
Re: Supply Inventory Module
A generic answer to this generic question is there are always plans to update every feature within the software.enamelrod wrote:are there any plans to update this feature
Historically, in regards to this particular part of the program, it got overhauled in v12.4 and then we reduced the number of clicks it takes to do things in v14.1.
What feature request are you looking forward to seeing finished next with supplies?
The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.
