Introduction
The system allows for detailed configuration of doctor availability and consultation hours. This guide explains how to set up the calendar with weekly recurring schedules (e.g., every Monday), handle alternating schedules for odd and even weeks, and set specific availability for individual dates.
Configuring Consultation Hours
Calendar settings are accessible from the main menu, where both general weekly schedules and specific exceptions can be managed.
Access and Basic Settings
Click on Calendars in the left-hand menu, then select Calendars again within the submenu.
Select the doctor or calendar you wish to edit.
Click the Edit appointments button.
On the interface that appears, choose the Change consultation option.
Setting Up Weekly View
The weekly view is used to set the general, recurring work schedule.
Select the weekly view option at the top of the interface.
Enable the toggle for the desired day (e.g., Monday) to activate availability.
Set the start and end times (e.g., 10:00 - 18:00).
Odd and Even Weeks: The system allows you to set different rules for Even weeks and Odd weeks. This is useful for doctors working rotating shifts.
Click the Save button to finalize settings.
Upon saving, the system will ask which weeks the changes should apply to. You can select all weeks or specific periods.
Setting Up Daily View
The daily view allows you to set consultation hours for a specific calendar date, which can differ from the general weekly schedule.
Switch to the Daily view tab.
Locate the specific date in the calendar (e.g., a specific Thursday).
Set the consultation hours for that day and enable availability.
Save the changes. This setting will only apply to the selected date.
Tips
Tip: Use the "Odd week" and "Even week" features if a doctor works mornings one week and afternoons the next, so you don't have to manually adjust times every week.
Tip: The Daily view is perfect for recording one-time substitutions or extraordinary opening hours without modifying the entire recurring calendar.
Summary
Calendar setup is done under the "Change consultation" menu.
