Displaying Appointments
Selecting Providers Schedules
To access or display a specific Doctor or Provider schedule, select the Providers you wish to see in the scheduler in the available Provider list.
By placing a check mark beside each doctor you wish to see in the Scheduler grid, their appointments will be displayed. Note that you may select one or several providers to display simultaneously on the Scheduler screen. Once providers are selected, the display will be automatically set to the chosen schedules.
The refresh List button permits a user to refresh the provider list if one is added while the scheduler is opened.
Selecting Time Period to Show
You may select various time periods to show in the Scheduler. For example you can select a particular day, week, month or every Monday of a given month or different days during the year. The choice is yours (also see Selection Calendar).
Select a Day
To select a given day, you simply click on the day you wish to display on the calendar situated on the top left hand side of the screen. The day selected will be automatically displayed.
Select a Week
To view a week at a time, highlight the week in question by dragging your mouse over the days you wish to select on the calendar located in the top left corner. The Scheduler display will be automatically updated to display the selected period.
Select a Period
To select a period is the same process as to display a day or a week. Simply highlight the period you wish to display and the Scheduler will display the selected period. To highlight a period, click your left mouse button and drag the mouse cursor over the dates you wish to display.
Select Specific Days
To select specific days you must highlight the days in question. To accomplish this hold down the Control key (Ctrl) on your keyboard while pressing the left mouse button on the days you wish to display. Remember that you must keep the Control key pressed during the whole selection action. Once you release the control key, the unique selection criteria is stopped.
Key Commands
The Scheduler has several keyboard commands or short cuts which may be beneficial in your work. We strongly recommend that you review the available key short cuts.
Colour Coded Appointments
The appointments are colour coded to assist users in identifying the types of appointments listed in the schedule. Colour codes for the appointments can be user defined via the system settings.
