Family Members with Different Phone# but Same Email

When entering family members is there a way to make everyone have the same email but different numbers?
-I know about the box in the "Email and Phone" section that says "Same for Entire Family" but when you click that it gives everyone the same wireless and work numbers as well. I'm kind of curious why these two aren't separated? Anyway I'm just reaching out to see if I'm missing something? Thanks!

This would be a feature request. (http://opendental.com/manual/featurerequests.html)
As you mentioned the "Same for Entire Family" does the following :
"If checked, and you change email or phone information for the patient, the information will also change for all existing family members. If this box is checked for other family members, and you create a new family member, email and phone information is not copied. If you check it when adding a new family member, any changes made will be applied to all other family members." (http://opendental.com/manual/patientedit.html)

Thanks for the info, is there a direct link to feature requests rather than doing it inside the program?

No problem! All feature request must be entered through the program.
