Just a query…can BatchCom be used to send birthday reminders to the patients?

Hi,

Batchcom can send the mails for patients based on the criteria specified in the Batchcom section. Currently there are no filters available to select the patients based on their DOB to support birthday reminders. So we need to add the search filter for DOB by customizing code in the file ‘interface/batchcom/batchcom.php’.

Thanks

For the filter you do not need DOB. Just use the little part dd/mmmm, i.e. day of birth and month of birth… YES, this is obvious!

I know you did not need this information!

I just want to dispatch my new Linux knowledge:-))

https://courses.edx.org/courses/LinuxFoundationX/LFS101x/2T2014/info

edX and learn the Linux Basics.This course did not help much to understand the Mint17 problems OpenEMR was experiencing. Though the title is LFS101 it has even less to do with fsgl number 1 in WIKI knowledge for EMR and other wisdom.

Frankly, the batchcom.php is badly broken and very hard to manage. The
developer tried to be too cool in the code. This program needs to be
rewritten completely. I hacked it down to just do appointments for one
customer to make it simple an reliable, but that’s just a hack.
