    Release Notes for May 2021

    These release notes are meant to give an overview of new features and/or enhancements launched in the month of May.

    What's New for Practice Management

    Collapsible Subtasks on the Task List

    Description: Previously behind a toggle, we have now pushed this feature live to all users. 

    The Tasks List has been cleaned up to allow users to collapse and expand subtasks. This allows users to locate their primary tasks more quickly. Currently, this feature must be opted into. It will be fully integrated after tax season.
