Allow linking of referral to groups. Such as Best Ever Oral Surgeons might have five individual doctors.
Allow inactivation of referral sources. For instance, an oral surgeon might retire, no need to keep searching past her name.
Great idea. I posted this request on the "Feature Request" forum for you. Keep those good ideas coming, and thank you for helping us make Dentrix Ascend better.
