EXACT Release Notes, May 2024

In May, our development teams implemented a number of changes to improve your experience when using EXACT. These included updates to stock and appointment booking management options, payment confirmations, security updates and more.

Let's delve into these changes in more detail.

Managing your Stock

Enhancements to your stock management include new options to configure your stock list and add/edit stock with three new buttons in your stock area. For quick stock management, you can find this update in the Payment area of EXACT.

You can read more about stock management in the EXACT help centre.

Book Appointments with Ease

Managing your list of available booking options/services has been simplified with the addition of a new configuration option. This new option is located next to your services list when creating an appointment.

Click this new option to open the Appointment Book Service List Management feature which will allow you to configure your available options and your default services.

Explore this new functionality in the Appointment Booking Service help article.

Paperless Receipts

A new Email payment confirmation option is available now. This new functionality enables you to email receipts directly to patients using the email address stored in their patient records.

This brings payment confirmations into the digital era, helping your practice to go green without adding any inconvenience to your team.

Learn more about this new Payment Confirmation functionality in the EXACT help centre.

Forgotten Passwords

We've increased the security options available in EXACT with the new Forgot Password functionality, enabling you to reset your password without an admin user. To take advantage of this feature, you'll need to keep your details current. You can check this in your User Settings under Contact Details.

This new functionality empowers all EXACT users to reset their individual passwords and enhance the security of your PMS (Practice Management System).

If you need help creating or changing your password, find out more in the EXACT help centre.
