Appointments POST (create) does not update/set Recall schedule dates

[rinse-dental]

I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug in the current API; however, I'd like to mimic the feature within OD client where if a D1110 (for example) is booked - the 'sched date' on the recall table is updated. Ideally this would occur automatically, if not - perhaps it's allowing a put option for this field?

Good morning rinse-dental,

We have added this enhancement for Appointments POST (create) to our development list. It will update the the DateScheduled in the recall table when an appointment is created with a Recall procedure. We will update this thread when this request is completed.

Thanks!

Hello - Checking in on this one. We're finding issues in how we manage recall workflows, specifically reminders, etc. because Open Dental does not recognize an apt booked via the API as a recall apt.

Good morning,

This feature request is actively in development and will completed rather shortly.

[rinse-dental]

Thanks!

We have completed this enhancement. Appointments PUT, POST SchedulePlanned, POST WebSched, as well as ProcedureLogs POST, PUT, and DELETE now automatically update patient Recall dates if needed. This enhancement is available starting in stable version 23.1.56.
