Signing Groups for Multiple Signatures
Signing groups are now available in Documents & Policies, enabling you to send a document to a group of people for signature with just one person required to sign. Once this person assumes the role of primary approver and signs, email notifications will be sent to the remaining members informing them that the document has been officially signed. This makes privileging and appointment approvals a breeze!
Other signature options already available include:
Signing chain: You have the flexibility to determine the sequence in which signatures are obtained from board members or other groups of approvers. Notifications will be sent based on the order you establish. Each time a signature is obtained, the subsequent approver in the sequence will be notified that it is now their turn to sign the document. Upon gathering all required signatures, you will receive an email notification that the document has been fully signed.
Multiple signers: If you have a new policy awaiting approval from the board, you can create or upload the document and email it to all board members at the same time for their signatures. You'll get a notification once all their signatures are complete on the policy.
External users in signing groups cannot interact with forms and collect responses, so they cannot fill out forms or provide their own information unless they are internal users.

Conversations Dataset - Incident Reports
Introducing the new conversation section on incident reports. This section showcases all the comments and discussions surrounding each incident and who has reviewed the incident, making transparency simple and leaving you with confidence when an audit comes around.

Override Fields - Incident Reporting
This has been a highly requested feature and we're pleased to announce that four new override fields have been added into MedTrainer Incident Reports. The override fields make it easy to change incorrect information, while still keeping the data originally submitted.
The new fields are: Override Location, Override Department, Override Incident Type, and Override Incident Subtype.
With these fields you can easily uphold accuracy and enforce compliance, ensuring that your organization is transparent, accountable and prepared for regulatory purposes and audits.
For more details, you can consult the user guide.

Drag-and-Drop Bulk Uploads
New bulk document upload makes adding any number of documents into the system super easy. In the past, loading documents was time consuming, but we heard you and upgraded. Combined with drag-and-drop functionality, you are now able to upload large volumes of documents at once with a single action.
How to do it?
Double-click on the desired folder you want to upload documents into. The folder selected will be the location for the new document, and only the users that have access to the folder will be able to access the document.
Drag and drop the documents into the desired folder.
As soon as the documents are dropped, an uploading pop-up will appear on the screen. This pop-up will show the uploading process of each document that was dragged and dropped into the system. Once the documents are completely uploaded, hit the refresh table button.
After refreshing the table, the newly uploaded documents will be displayed in the document list section as a draft, making it easier to edit if needed.
