Each side panel button will open and display a set of logically related data on a new screen. The purpose of the sidebar is mainly to be able to get to the different screens quickly via the shortcut buttons.
Web App: Dental Charting - Diagnosis/Observations and Treatment Planning (Dentist / Specialist ONLY)
The Observation/Diagnosis and Treatment Planning Chart is a graphical tool/function for organising all the important information about the Patients teeth and mouth (Imperfections, Fillings, Replacements) when the Doctor does the Consultation and Billing before, during and after the Appointment.

The primary purpose of an invoice is to provide the Practice and the Patient with a record of service. An invoice serves an important purpose in a business's accounting: invoices demonstrate a Patients or their Medical Aids obligation to pay you for your services. To bill the procedures and items/materials that were used on a patient, you will create an Invoice.
The purpose of the Account Details screen is so that the user can easily access ALL Account-related matters on one screen.
Desktop App: Prescription Letter (Signata & Print of Script)
A prescription, often abbreviated ℞ or Rx, is a health care program implemented by a physician or other qualified health care practitioner in the form of instructions that govern the plan of care for an individual patient. The purpose of a prescription is for a Doctor to prescribe an order for the preparation and administration of a drug or device for a patient.
The purpose of the print diary option is mainly if the Doctor wants a printout (hardcopy) of his diary schedule for the next day to plan ahead.
The Theatre Manager will assist the Practice in managing their Theatre bookings. The bookings can be made in the diary and you will be able to print or download the theatre list from these bookings. The Doctor can either keep the theatre bookings on a separate diary or block out the times for Theatre in their current daily diary. You will have to ENABLE and set up the Theatre Manager and the theatre bookings in the settings and then create the theatre list for it to display in the diary.
The purpose of updating the Debtor or Patient Information is if any personal information on their side has changed, the Doctor must always have the correct updated details of the Patient. You can view the Debtor and Patient details if you need to get any demographic details eg. a contact number if you need to contact the patient about something specific. If you need to update any personal information you will need to EDIT the Debtor.
The Sidebar is an extended screen with shortcut buttons on the right-hand side where more functions and information is shown of the Debtor/Patient. You access different screens from the Sidebar. The Sidebar can be minimised when not used. The information shown on the Sidebar can be switched off by using the Sidebar Widgets.
Providing a search function that searches your Web App for Debtors is a design strategy that offers users a way to find content (such as Debtor or Patient demographic information). The search function makes it easier for users to locate and access debtors or patients instead of having to scroll through the list especially if its a big Practice with a lot of Debtor files.
Entity Setup is set per Entity to customize the program to the specific needs of the Practice.
The purpose of User Setup:
- GoodX works according to Users. This is the person who has a login name and is using the login name to open GoodX. You can set up the different users for each Entity under the User Setup.
- The User will have certain Access, according to the Setup.
- The Username will show on all the transactions and any changes that were made on the system.
A Sick Note or Medical Certificate is a written statement from a Physician or other Medically qualified Health Care Provider which attests to the result of a Medical Examination of a Patient.

Web App: Peri-Operative - Part 1: Creating the Theatre List on GoodX Web App
GrandXChange is a data exchange portal for Practitioners. The purpose of the Practitioners Portal is to:
- Share theatre lists & operation details for shared procedures: the surgeon(s) and anaesthesiologist(s) will be able to share data based on a shared theatre list
The portal is available to:
- Practitioners who work on the GoodX Web App to be able to share data with other practitioners who do not have GoodX Web App; and
- Practitioners who both work on the GoodX Web App so that they can sync data through Grand Exchange and work directly on their GoodX Web Apps.
Capturing data on Grand X Change does not create Debtors in any Practice Management Application, but creates a shared knowledge base for Practitioners who are involved in shared procedures. Medical debtors can be opened in the software based on shared information.
http://learning.goodx.co.za/mod/page/view.php?id=4188Web App: Peri-Operative - Part 3: Syncing the Theatre List back to GoodX Web
PART 3: Syncing the Theatre List back to GoodX Web

The medical debtors must still be opened in the Web App based on the shared information from the Surgeon like captured on GrandX Change.
