Reports

Some reports might give some problems when user rights are set to read-only. This is most likely because the report script tries to save files to the ideas root or one of its subfolders.

This is a common practice in scripted reports, but only serves the purpose of modifying reports on templated files. In production, the reports should never create files anywhere in the ideas folder or its subfolders.

Therefore those reports need to be checked and the explicit saving of files anywhere in the ideas folder structure should be removed.

Moving the docs folder to another location

Some clinics might prefer to move the docs folder to another location, outside of the current ideas folder structure. This is possible (only in for version 6.0.0.98 and above) by setting the UNC path in the t_settings.docsroot field in the ideas database.

The UNC path always has to end with '\docs\'
