Waiting List

The Waiting List provides a mechanism for creating and managing a list of patients when no suitable free slots are available in the Appointment Book. Once a slot becomes free, patients can be transferred from the Waiting List to the Appointment Book. The Waiting List should not be used for making general patient appointments, nor should it be confused with either the Waiting Room or a patient's Bookings window.

The Waiting List window is available from the Margin Menu in the Patient Explorer, as shown in the image below.

The following information explains how to add a patient to the waiting list, and then how to transfer a patient from the Waiting List to the Appointment Book.
