We are pleased to announce the release of PhonePad Version 5.30.0.
Changes in This Release
⦁ NEW: We have updated PhonePad 5 with a new help system that features context-sensitive help. Now you can get help on the screen you’re on instead of having to search through the help file or manual.
⦁ NEW: A new System Rule has been added that requires users to select a Category before sending a message. So if you use categories to, errr, categorize your messages then you can now make sure users have selected a category for the message they are logging.
⦁ FIXED: Completed follow up note was not being added when completing a follow up.
⦁ FIXED: Automatically moving completed messages to a folder was not working.
⦁ FIXED: Attachments were not being added.
⦁ Various minor fixes and improvements.
Installation Information
Please note: Server Updates must be installed on your Server or Host PC, not your workstation (unless your workstation is also the Host PC) – they cannot be installed directly on your workstations. Make sure all users are logged out of PhonePad as the PhonePad Server will be stopped during the update and then restarted once it has completed. Workstations will be automatically updated when PhonePad 5 Workstation is started on each workstation.
Important: When downloading and installing an update from your My PhonePad account, make sure it’s actually the update and not the server setup program. The update will update your database whereas the setup program will overwrite it with a blank database.
If you have the automatic update service installed then the update should automatically download and install. If for some reason it doesn’t, you can download the update from your My PhonePad account or by using the Application Update option on the System Admin menu in PhonePad 5.
These updates are available for both fully licensed users and trial users. For licensed users you must have a current support plan to install the update.
Please contact Support if you have any problems or questions
