Some sections of online help are related to configuration - Areas/items which are configurable, and allow IDEAS to be tailored to your clinic within IDEAS are accessible through ‘File > System Configuration’. We recommend that editing access to this area is restricted to Superusers. Configuration is mainly done when a clinic is new to IDEAS, but may also be reviewed as processes and workflows change with time.

This section of online help is different to the configuration section. It helps you in how to use IDEAS once it is configured for your clinic. If there are pre-requisites to being able to use a particular feature, we are working on naming those at the top of the page. There should also be a change history at the bottom for you to see any recent changes.

Mellowood release regular updates to IDEAS. You can see your clinic’s version number in the bottom right corner of your screen. Mellowood don’t automatically upgrade all clinics when a new update is released, as each clinic is individual in their needs, and also their ability or availability to regularly update. Currently we are encouraging all clinics to upgrade to IDEAS V7, as V6 is no longer being updated with development changes.
