This is a quick overview for adding a new appointment.
Add An Appointment
To add an appointment the user should do the following:
- In the Top Margin click the NEW APPOINTMENT button

- In the CLIENT field, begin to type the client's name. The user will be offered a list of matching clients
- Select the client from the list

- The DURATION field is automatically set when the user selected the appointment type. The user can edit the value.
- Optionally, pick a room or resource in the USING ROOM / RESOURCE field to book that room or piece of equipment
- In the REMIND CLIENT USING field select the reminder schedule to use or leave blank if no reminder is to be sent

For a full description of the controls in this window see The Appointment Window.
Tip: For testing purposes, we recommend that the user picks their client record and chooses a date 2 days in the future. The default reminder options are set to remind clients 2 days in advance. By doing this the user should receive the appointment reminder within minutes of adding the appointment record.
View List of Appointments
To view the list of appointments on the account for the specific day used the user should do the following:
