Medicine Saving Fix (MAJOR):
- Add hidden field 'discharge_medicine_json' to capture medicine table data
- Add serializeDischargeMedicineTable() function to convert DOM table to JSON before form submit
- Hook serialization into form submit event (before syncEditorValues)
- Update controller to process discharge_medicine_json in save_main action
- Insert medicines into ipd_discharge_prescrption_prescribed or ipd_discharge_prescription_prescribed table
- Medicine data now persists on page reload
CKEditor Integration:
- Initialize CKEditor for 'instruction_other' (Other Advice) field
- Initialize CKEditor for 'instruction_remark' (Discharge Summary) field
- Add simplified toolbar: Bold, Italic, Underline, Lists, Undo/Redo
- Properly destroy existing instances before re-initialization
- Height: 120px for Other Advice, 150px for Discharge Summary
Review After Quick Select Buttons:
- Add getNextVisitOptions() method to Ipd_discharge controller (copied from Opd_prescription)
- Add resolveFirstField() helper method
- Pass next_visit_options array to view
- Render quick select buttons: '3 Days (09-06-2026)', '1 Week (13-06-2026)', etc.
- Add JavaScript handler: click button → populate #discharge_review_after input
- Change Review After field from col-md-4 to col-md-6 for better layout
- Add col-md-12 wrapper for button row with flex-wrap gap-2 layout
Technical Details:
- Medicine JSON structure: {med_type, med_name, dosage, dosage_when, dosage_freq, no_of_days, qty, remark}
- JSON processing includes column existence checks for flexibility
- Quick select buttons use data-value attribute for value insertion
- Falls back to hardcoded date options if opd_nextvisit table missing
- Medicine insert uses med_id=0 to mark client-added medicines
User Workflow:
1. Add medicines → shown in table (Type, Medicine, Dose labels, Duration formatted)
2. Click 'Save Discharge Advice' → medicines serialize to JSON → POST to controller
3. Controller parses JSON → inserts to database → medicines persist on reload
4. Other Advice/Discharge Summary now have rich text editing (bold, lists, etc.)
5. Review After: click '1 Week (13-06-2026)' button → auto-fills input
- Added 'Discharge' button in sidebar under In-Patient & Nursing Care section
- Created search_patient() and search_patient_ajax() controller methods
- Implemented AJAX-based patient search by IPD Code, UHID, Name, or Mobile
- Added ipd_discharge/search_patient.php view with dynamic results table
- Search results show patient details, bed info, doctor assignments, and discharge status
- Added 'Create Discharge' and 'Print Discharge' action buttons for each patient
- Integrated DataTables for sorting and pagination
- Fixed database column names (patient_master.gender, age, age_in_month)
- Added routes for search page and AJAX endpoint
- Add 'Discharge Summary' section to buildAutoDischargeContent with department, doctors, and dates so {{DISCHARGE_SUMMARY}} token extracts properly
- Improve getDischargeDepartmentName to support dept_id, department_id fields and check both hc_department and ipd_department tables
- Improve getDischargeDoctorNames to fallback to doctor_id, doc_id, consultant_id if doc_list is empty
- Update DISCHARGE_TEMPLATE_TOKENS.md to clarify what {{DISCHARGE_SUMMARY}} contains
- Clear cached content for IPD 1 to regenerate with new logic
Fixes issue where {{DISCHARGE_SUMMARY}}, {{DOCTOR_NAMES}}, {{DEPARTMENT}} tokens were not working (replaced with empty values)
New placeholders added:
1. PATIENT_PHONE - Patient's phone number from patient_master.mphone1 or ipd_master.P_mobile1
Example: 9876543210
2. INSURANCE_COMPANY - Insurance company name from ipd_master.ins_short_name or ins_company_name
Example: Star Health Insurance
Default: 'Direct' if no insurance
3. DOCTOR_NAMES / DOCTOR_NAME - Comma-separated list of treating doctors with specialties
Example: Dr. Rajesh Kumar [General Medicine], Dr. Priya Sharma [Cardiology]
Reads from ipd_master.doc_list field and joins with doctor_master and med_spec tables
Changes:
- Added getDischargeDoctorNames() helper function
- Updated buildDischargeSummaryTokenVars() to include three new tokens
- Updated DISCHARGE_TEMPLATE_GUIDE.md with new token documentation
- Added example template showing usage of new tokens
- Updated CI3 to CI4 migration mapping table
These tokens match the data shown in the auto-generated patient summary table
and allow templates to display this information in custom layouts.
OLD CI3 BEHAVIOR (correct):
- Patient demographic table was IN the template file
- Content variables contained ONLY clinical sections
- Template controlled entire layout
NEW CI4 FIX (matching CI3):
- Patient table removed from buildAutoDischargeContent completely
- Added {{PATIENT_INFO_TABLE}} token for templates to use if needed
- Auto-generated content now contains ONLY clinical sections
- Blank template = blank output (no patient table forced)
- Templates can add patient table using token or individual tokens
Changes:
- Removed includeSummaryTable parameter from buildAutoDischargeContent
- Removed templateHasDemographicTokens helper (no longer needed)
- Added PATIENT_INFO_TABLE token in buildDischargeTemplateTokenVars
- Simplified show_discharge and preview_discharge_report (no template detection)
- Added comment explaining CI3 compatibility
This matches the old CI3 chamunda_discharge_template_html.php pattern where:
- Template had hardcoded patient table structure
- Variables like \, \ were injected
- Content did NOT include patient demographics by default
- Modified buildAutoDischargeContent to accept includeSummaryTable parameter
- Added templateHasDemographicTokens helper to detect if template has patient info tokens
- Updated show_discharge and preview_discharge_report to check template before auto-generation
- When template has {{PATIENT_NAME}}, {{UHID}}, etc., skip auto-summary table
- Added clear_discharge_content.php script to clear cached content for regeneration
- Solves issue where blank templates still showed patient information table

BUGFIX: Database error when saving editable complaint fields
PROBLEM: After adding X-Requested-With header, the request reached
the controller but threw 'Database error' when trying to update the
complaint field.
ROOT CAUSE: The ipd_discharge_complaint table does not have an
'updated_at' column. The update query was trying to set:
- comp_report or comp_remark (correct)
- updated_at (does not exist) ← DATABASE ERROR
INVESTIGATION: Checked how complaint rows are inserted elsewhere in
the codebase (line 4117-4130). The table has 'update_by' column for
tracking changes, not 'updated_at'.
SOLUTION:
1. Removed hardcoded 'updated_at' => date(...) from update data
2. Only update the target field (comp_report or comp_remark)
3. Conditionally set 'update_by' if column exists (audit trail)
4. Use session full_name for user tracking
Now editable complaint fields save successfully without database errors.
BUGFIX: Event handlers were only attached on initial page load
PROBLEM: After implementing editable complaint fields, the inputs
wouldn't become editable when adding new complaints via the Smart
Complaints Picker. The event handlers were only attached once on
page load, not after the section was dynamically reloaded.
ROOT CAUSE: When clicking Add or AI Draft buttons, the form submits
and the section-complaints area is reloaded from server. The new
complaint rows had the input fields but no event handlers attached.
SOLUTION:
1. Moved event handler attachment logic into initComplaintTools()
function as new attachComplaintFieldHandlers() helper
2. This function is automatically called after section reload
3. Clone-and-replace pattern to prevent duplicate event handlers
4. Fixed table name: ipd_discharge_complaint (not ipd_discharge_comp)
FLOW:
- Add complaint → section reloads → initComplaintTools() runs →
attachComplaintFieldHandlers() attaches blur/keydown handlers →
editable fields work
Now clicking on complaint name/remark inputs works for both:
- Existing complaints (on page load)
- Newly added complaints (after section reload)
FEATURE: Inline editing for discharge complaint table
PROBLEM: In IPD discharge form, complaint names and remarks were
read-only after adding. Unlike OPD consult form where you can edit
complaint names directly in the table.
SOLUTION:
1. VIEW Changes (discharge_create.php):
- Changed complaint name and remark columns from static <td> to editable <input>
- Added data attributes for complaint ID and original values
- Added CSS classes: discharge-complaint-name-input, discharge-complaint-remark-input
2. JAVASCRIPT Changes:
- Added saveComplaintField() function for AJAX updates
- Event handlers on blur to save changes
- Enter key support to blur and save
- Visual feedback: green border on success, red on error
- Auto-updates original value after successful save
3. CONTROLLER Changes (Ipd_discharge.php):
- Added update_complaint_field() method for AJAX endpoint
- Updates ipd_discharge_comp table (comp_report or comp_remark)
- Returns JSON success/error response
BENEFITS:
- Same user experience as OPD consult form
- Edit complaints/remarks without page reload
- Immediate feedback on save success/failure
- Type correction and updates without removing and re-adding rows
