In this report, user(s) will be able to input a number (mins) which would then be used to filter the results. In other words, if the number is 5, the only shifts that would show are the ones where actual clock-in time was more than 5 minutes greater than the scheduled clock-in time.

The service type that was selected in the client authorization will show as “Authorized Services” under the service type drop-down in the schedule creation window.
On the Schedule window, the service type drop-down will be divided into 2 sections

If a Client authorization is defined, the service type will appear under authorized services in the service type drop down when creating or updating a schedule.
19. Ability to override total units fields while creating the invoice
User(s) will now have the ability to modify/override the total unit field on the invoice batch screen, prior to finalizing the invoice.

24. Ability to match QuickBooks service type(s) from payer level as well
Earlier, user(s) were able to match the service type with QuickBooks Online/Desktop from the QB integration screen only. From now on, user(s) will be able to do the same matching on the Payer → Rates screen as well, so they can map out different G/L codes specific to the payers.
A new section is created for service type matching similar to Service Type matching under QB integration & it would work exactly the way as it works under QB Integration → Service type matching screen.
If values are not set under payer profile, system will then review settings under QB → service type matching screen to see if the values are present to do the matching.
The hierarchy here would be that system will first go & check from the payer profile. If they are not present in the payer profile, then the value would be fetched from QB → Service matching screen.
