Premigration
The Project Elevate team will work with you to update your computers to the latest version of Citrix in preparation for your migration. With this update it will temporarily change how you launch your software.
Accessing your Software
To access your software, you will log onto the website that was provided by the Project Elevate team during your pre-migration work. You will login with just your username and password without the “mypractice\” in front.

User Login Setup
You will need to ensure that either each workstation or each staff member has a designated Citrix user assigned to them. You are unable to use the same Citrix User login across multiple workstations concurrently.
NOTE: This is especially important if your office has multiple locations that are open concurrently. It is recommended you assign each location a group of Citrix User logins to prevent issues.
Email – Outlook
You will need to configure Outlook 2016 to continue emailing from your software. It is recommended to have your IT or Email hosting company assist with this. Please follow the link below to configure Outlook.
