Appointment Settings

Setup > Practitioner > Practitioner Details

The Appointment Settings tab of the Practitioner Setup window allows you to modify the following settings, per practitioner:

• The default Appointment Slot Size (Appointment Duration). You can always modify an appointment's duration at the time it is booked.
• The number of appointment priority levels. Appointment priority levels are used when a double-booking occurs, allowing the user to indicate the priority order of bookings.
• Whether the practitioner elects to use SMS Reminder notification functionality, and if so, whether there are any appointment types for which this functionality will not be used.
• The practitioner's availability schedule, and holiday schedule. This gives other users an indication of the practitioner's availability and whereabouts at any time.
