APPOINTMENT BOOK BLOCK BOOKING

FOR CLOSED AND EMERGENCY SLOTS

  1. From the main Assisi Desktop, click the Appointment Book tile.

  2. Set up a pattern for each room, usually for one week, to be copied forward throughout the book for a specified number of weeks. Block off an unavailable slot by double clicking the start of the slot, selecting one of the blocking categories from the drop down list, specifying the length of the slot and clicking the Save tile.

  3. Click the Settings tile from the main Assisi Desktop and > then click the Appointment Books tile.

  4. Click the Copy Patterns tile.

  5. In the Source window, identify the room, start date of the > pattern and the number of days in the pattern.

  6. In the Destination window, identify the same room, the first day > onto which the pattern is to be copied forward and the number of > repeats required.

  7. In the Block Patterns to Copy box, tick the relevant blocking > appointment category that has been used in your pattern

  8. Click the Green Tick to begin the copying process.

  9. Repeat for each room.

ALL DAY EVENTS

All day events can be added by double clicking a slot in the Appointment Book, as if you were adding an appointment, but instead of selecting a client/animal, click the All Day Event Box, type in a description for the event and click the Save tile.

All day events can be copied forward in the same way as outlined above – just click the Copy All Day Events box instead of the blocking category in the Block Patterns to Copy box.

NOTE: If a room is subsequently closed using the Special Days or Special Dates rule after an all day event, or a blocking category has been added, then the all day event and blocking category will still be displayed on the closed room. They can, however, be manually deleted by double clicking and selecting Delete Appointment. The same applies to any existing appointment, so that they are not accidentally overwritten.
