<h2>Working times and restrictions<span style="font-size: medium;"> (Resources settings)</span></h2>
+
<p style="text-align: left;">In this area  each resource can be  adjusted in detail. General working times can be  defined for the whole  clinic, as well as special working times for  each  individual resource.  Using &ldquo;appointment types&rdquo; it is possible to  restrict some parts of the  day to only accept certain appointment  types, for each resource. It is  also possible to restrict a resource to  an allocated maximum number of  appointments.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">&nbsp;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">Appointment type</h3>
+
<p style="text-align: justify;">Time  sections that allow only certain  types of appointments can be defined  for each resource. For example on  Monday from 08:00 AM to 10:00 AM the  doctor X performs only first  interviews with new patients. By defining  an appointment type &ldquo;First  interview&rdquo; and assigning it to this  resource  and time, it will be  possible to schedule only first  interviews with  doctor X on Monday  morning. Or you may want to  schedule on Thursday  from 09:30 AM to 02:00  PM only appointments that  take place in the  operation room (OR)? In this  case you can define an  appointment type  &ldquo;OR&rdquo; which you should assign to  the involved  resources and the specific  time.</p>

Go to System -> Display working times.

Or go to System -> Settings -> Working times and constraints. 

Here, each resource can be adjusted accordingly.

General working time can be defined for the whole clinic, as well as special working time for each individual resource. It is also possible to restrict a resource to a maximum number of appointments.

 

  • On the list to the right, you can define the working time for each resource.
  • The first row represents the general working time of the clinic. These will be automatically valid for all resources that have no specific working time defined.
  • Then, you can see the overview of each selected resource.
  • Double-clicking a resource or on button Edit resource settings, you can open the settings window of the selected resource.

  • Change the times of available resources directly in the fields.
  • Clicking on Define working time, you can set a worktime for the chosen appointment type on the selected day.

In the drop down list you can choose the appointment type(s) allowed for the selected work model – selected row.

If you do not make a special selection (all boxes checked), all appointments will be displayed in the schedule. In this way there will be no constraints on appointment type.

 

Additional information:

  • For each day you can define the starting and ending time.
  • If you like to define a break, for example a lunch break, insert a further time range (button Define working time). In one row you apply the time FROM the beginning of the break , to the row where you apply the time UNTIL the end of the break . If you have more rows for a day and there are overlapping times, the summary of the appointment types of the intersection are not valid for the overlapping time.
