Addressess/Streets
When entering a new patients address you always have to enter the address in full. It would be good if there was a list of addresses to choose from, so as you type the street the choices come up and you choose the correct one, with the correct post code. It would save lots of typing and also stop errors in entries of street names and postcodes.
This has now been completed and released in version 7.2.
An address search field has been added which allows partial addresses to be entered, returning a list of potential matches.
Thank you for you comments and suggestions, which really help us to improve the product in a way that is important to you.

This is a feature that is already a basic function in other PMS. I find it very time consuming and annoying to have to enter the address details every time. Verification is not needed as once you have entered the address/postcode in each field it comes up in the list of options each time and you choose the one that matches. If you are not sure first time what the postcode is then you check it at NZPost and enter it, next time it will be available in the list of options.

When entering patient details into the address field, an auto fill would be wonderful so we dont have to type in all the details into the boxes and look up post codes etc.

Don't need that enough to warrant paying for it. I just use https://www.nzpost.co.nz/tools/address-postcode-finder if I am unsure.

What about if as a city if registered we automatically get Auckland put in for ourselves for example and can change if necessary

Lisa: Postcode & Suburb is much easier as this data is usually available for free. Certainly possible to implement. However, this wouldn't satisfy this requirement as it is. For this reason, we have created your comment as a new suggestion ( https://gensolve.uservoice.com/forums/327429/suggestions/15502035 )

Agree, payment for entry not a good idea.
Front Desk have it so it only happens with the suburb and postcode and it was not a paid thing, but built into the application.... is that a possibility?

I wouldn't like to pay for that. It would help though if at least the postcode would auto fill once the suburb has been entered

Michelle commented
We would not be happy to pay that either

No we would not be happy to pay that.

Address Verification is a paid service that could cost approximately 10 to 15 cents per query (address verified), this is a cost that would need to be transferred to end customers. Is this a service that you would consider paying if we integrate the software with an address verification provider?

Other systems I have used have the ability to link into the NZ post address & postcode finder.

Would be beneficial if it could be linked to the NZ Post website as this would put addresses into the correct format.
