Adding patient when he/she appears to be new.

Hi,
As soon as I type in the name of a patient in the appointment editor, the patient-database window pops up. That's great when the patient is in the database.
Now when the patient appears to be new (he or she is not in the database), I have to close the patient-database window and click on the 'new-patient' button. Now I have to re-type the full name again to import the new patient in the database.

Is it possible (or - wouldn't it be great) to have a button ('NEW') in the first window that appears, to import the name I have just typed (imagine all the effort) straight into the patient database??

Thank you for your suggestion. It's never been mentioned before. I suppose most clinics simply ask if it's a new patient before trying to enter their name, then they already know whether to create a new record.

Could it be on the wish list?

I've already put it on there for you.
