The overview calendar plays a central role in organizing the daily workflow. It allows the reception and doctors to see all available time slots, already booked appointments, and specific daily notes on a single interface. This view facilitates quick navigation and efficient resource management in everyday clinic life.
Using the Interface
Upon entering the system, the overview calendar defaults to the current date and shows the schedule of doctors working on that day.
Display Settings
Different time slot statuses are visually distinguished in the calendar:
White areas: Available, bookable time slots set in the doctor's calendar.
Gray areas: Closed time slots when the doctor is not consulting or is unavailable.
Bookings: If an appointment is already booked, it appears within the respective time slot.
Filtering Options
Using the filter icon in the top left corner, you can narrow down the displayed data to see only relevant information:
By Doctors: You can check or uncheck individual doctors in the list.
By Treatment Type: Filter for specific treatments or examinations.
By Field of Qualification: Display doctors based on their specialization.
Save: You can fix the set filters for the current session using the "Save Filter" button.
Navigation and Date Selection
Use the controls in the top right corner to move through time:
Arrows: Step forward or backward day by day.
Today button: Immediate return to the current day's view.
Calendar icon: Select a specific date from the dropdown calendar.
Managing Doctor Comments
The system allows you to record a short text message for a specific day and doctor:
Click on the Comment field located under the doctor's name.
Enter the desired information (e.g., "Arriving late", "Urgent cases only").
After saving, the comment appears in red, indicating that there is important information regarding the doctor's schedule for that day.
Comments are date-specific: if you navigate to another day, the message disappears, but it will be visible again when returning to the original day.
Printing Documents
By clicking the print icon in the top right corner, the system generates a document of the day's examinations, which can be printed or archived as needed.
Tips
Tip: Use filtering if many doctors are working simultaneously to avoid overcrowding the calendar and to find free slots faster.
Tip: Always check the comments highlighted in red under the doctors' names, as these may contain critical daily information for the reception.

FAQ
Why can't I see my comment on the next day?
Why can't I see my comment on the next day?
Comments are always linked to a specific day and doctor. If you want to record the information for the next day as well, you must enter it there too.

Can I see in the calendar if a doctor has no consultations that day?
Yes, because in this case, the doctor's column won't even appear in the calendar, if their consultation times are set up correctly.
