About the release notes

Syntellis is pleased to announce the 2024.1 release of Axiom Capital Tracking. Each product release provides new features, enhancements, and configuration options. Many of these features and enhancements are a direct result of your feedback and suggestions.

The purpose of these release notes is to provide you with the following:

  • High-level descriptions of new features
  • Information to know before upgrading
  • Steps for preparing for and scheduling your upgrade
  • List of fixed issues

This document provides the list of changes to shared areas of the Axiom Healthcare Suite products, which includes:

  • Suite-wide feature additions and changes

  • Security changes

  • Key platform changes

Each Axiom Healthcare Suite product has their own separate release notes that provide additional details about features and fixes that are specific to that product.

Prior to upgrading, review the Axiom 2023.3 Release Notes and the release notes for each product that is licensed by your organization.
