Double booking - allowing multiple available appointment bookings per time slot

A clinic will sometimes want to set up their appointment rosters to indicate there are multiple available timeslots per time period.  For example, the clinic may always want to book two patients for semen analysis procedures each half hour.  They may want to see two available timeslots at 800-830am.  

  • Create a complex roster as above

  • Also select 'Allow Double Booking' to show more than one available timeslot at the specified time.  

  • Add the timeslots to the complex roster and repeat any procedures where you want multiple timeslots displayed.  

 

This example indicates there are two available timeslots every 30 minutes from 8am - 12pm

  • Open the Appointment Diary to ensure the schedule appears as intended.  

Note: The multiple timeslots will only appear in the Detailed single calendar view of the Appointment Diary. You will not see multiple timeslots in the Multi Calendar / 7-Day / 28-Day views.
