Changing Vendors or ET formats on existing clients

 

  1. What you say:

    Advise clients that have Stand Alone that they will not longer have the ability to run the Employer reports when they go to integrated vendor. The may also lose the ability to update on line depending on what vendor program they are changing to. 

    Integrated DrD users changing vendors may not be able to use our eclaims program  unless they want to have double entry of information.

    DrD integrates with Genesis, Camsight, EZ2000, Innovative, Computer Age

    Dentifi clients that are going to switch to traditional, find the Viewer install if they were a previous traditional Dentrix user, or they need to order the viewer (Jon U might be able to get them a copy).

     

  2. What you do:

Change services, in the ET program, if the client changed from SA to Vendor or Vendor to SA. If you do not have program permissions go to a manager of Level 2 support person who does. Be sure when services are changed, you do not cancel the old format but use Transfer. This applies to service changes only, not actual cancels.

Change client screen in ET to the new vendor or program. Verify the computer information and office information (i.e. operating systems, email, internet connection, vendor version).

Check for Download capability. Not all offices can download. Do they have high-speed connection? Does the vendor accommodate update from downloads?

Send email to Susan D. send an email to Susan D with the client account and name in the regarding field and in the body of the message, what the service change is. Are there any charges for data or was the data downloaded.

Keep the client memo open until you confirm they have the new Trojan working properly.

Create data or web installs for any programs the client will need on the new format: Communicator, initial load, etc. Send a CD if necessary.

Order a new binder. Dentifi to traditional users will need a regular vendor binder. Clients that have been Trojan clients for many years will need a new binder. 

 

New Password and ID for Trojan Communications

You will very rarely do this. 

If you are going to do this, make sure the Trojan Communicator is deleted or otherwise uninstalled before you make any changes to the trading partner information.

Go to the clients account.

Click options at the bottom.

Click Assign New Password.

Save the change.

Make sure the new Web User ID and Password are changed in all communication settings in all install Trojan programs!!

Watch for any Task Server Emails coming into Support. If there is a copy of the Communicator running anywhere with the old Trading Partner information, it will start going nuts because it can't connect to the Trojan server.
