Appointment Mode Mapping - It is now mandatory when logging on to Appointments Setup to map all Slot Types to an Appointment Mode before carrying out any other action. If any Slot Types require mapping to an Appointment Mode, a message advises you of this and gives you the option to Map now or Map later:
-
Map now - Displays the Modes screen, where you can filter the outstanding unmapped slot types and map them to an Appointment Mode.
-
Map later - Allows you to defer on that occasion and continue using Appointments Setup without mapping.
The next user to log on to Appointments Setup will only have the option to select Map now:
Important - You cannot update Appointments Setup until Appointment Mode mapping is complete.
See Appointment Mode Mapping for more information. -
