OpenDental.Bridges.EDS_Statements

string email="";
Def billingDef=Defs.GetDef(DefCat.BillingTypes,guar.BillingType);
if(billingDef.ItemValue=="E") {
	email=guar.Email;
}
writer.WriteElementString("EMail",email);

Can we get email to always populate?

If the billing type is setup as an email statement, it overrides the statement mode (OpenDental.FormBillingOptions.GetStatementMode(PatAging)).
So to send an electronic statement with an email field, it requires the user to manually override as electronic.
I don't see anything that's dependent on the contents of the statement xml which would prevent the change.

I don't think we would want to change this to always send the email. I don't know what the ramifications would be of always sending the email to EDS. EDS might perform different actions based on whether or not that email field is present.

Err...I should have clarified. I work for EDS.

Ah, that makes sense. Would you mind emailing me so we can discuss this a little more? chris@opendental.com.
