Unlinking Practice Perfect Clients:
You can now remove the link between a client in Practice Perfect and in Wired Client by flagging the clients-in-question from the Client Listing in Practice Perfect, then clicking on Actions and selecting Disconnect client(s) from Wired Client. The client will remain in place on both applications, but will no longer be connected.
Next Appointments:
Instead of only the client's next Appointment being sent to Wired Client, the client's next three appointments will now be sent to Wired Client, and processed accordingly.
This will be exceedingly helpful for appointment reminders when the client a) may have more than one appointment on a given date and b) has appoinments on consecutive days where reminders are being sent several days in advance of each appointment.
