Payments
Hello! I was chatting with Sadie on the chat and asking about some options on payments.
She mentioned that there is no direct integration of the payments with Open Dental. It would be awesome if as soon as we took the payment, it would show up in the patient account on Open Dental. I was hoping to make a recommendation that that integration would be really helpful!
Also, (and I am really new to this whole system so forgive my newness) it may also be really helpful if the system would for us to make the payment directly from the phone call in. Like if the patient calls in the weave app pulls up their balance, but when we click on the balance, it does not go directly to make a payment. It would be helpful if it went straight to that screen and auto populated the total due.
We really appreciate all of your help and hope that our recommendations sound like something you might be interested in looking into. :) Thank you!!!!

It is frustrating that other credit card systems will integrate directly to weave payment. We would use the weave app for all of our payments if it did post payments directly to open dental.
