Trying to calculate patient chair time for an ongoing course of treatment it would be really useful to be able to generate a longer time period than having to do 12 monthly reports for one years length. Totally impractical

The problem relates to not just this, but a lot of reports.  It needs to have longer time periods.

 

Additionally something else that is frustrating is that Dentally needs to introduce a “submit” button because when you change the paramaters of one of the filters it immediately starts running the search when you still havent finished changing other filter parameters.  If the date rate is one year it takes a while for the search to stop.  It doesn’t make sense for the report to automatically start running until we are ready to actually click submit for the report to run.  Hope that makes sense?!

Thank you both for the feedback around exporting, and ​@BCDC2023 for the additional feedback about applying filters - I’ll ensure this is fed back to the product team!

If you or any other users have any further context or ideas, please drop a comment below

agree - the ability to change all filters especially on a report with a lot of data would be essential or there would be a huge wait at each stage until you had configured the report you wanted!
