It’s really easy to copy advance bookings that are made every week, fortnight or monthly. Here’s how.
- Book the first appointment in the diary as you would normally.
- With this appointment selected, click on the Copy button at the bottom left hand corner of the diary window.
- If you do not want to copy the diary comment to the future appointments select this tick box.
- Select whether you want the booking every day, week, fortnight or every 4 weeks.
- Enter how many appointments you want to book.
- Select whether to Allow Double booking.
Once this is done you need to just quickly check whether there are any patients booked into these time slots. This is also very quick and easy to do.
- Click on the Build the list of dates button and the dates you have selected will be shown below the diary.
- You can confirm these dates with the patient if there is any query.
- Then click on the Check the dates listed button.
- If there is currently an appointment in the diary on any of these dates a message will be displayed.
If you are happy to double-book the appointment click Yes.
If you wish to not book this single appointment but continue with the other bookings click No. - The dates you have confirmed will be shown. Click Apply the list of dates when you have confirmed them with the patient and are happy to book them in the diary.
