What's included in the Appointment Menu?

  • Updated

Details on the appointment context menu links.

Instead of constantly having to navigate through various menus and windows, the appointment context menu is a useful group of links that provide navigation shortcuts.

Some of the menu items are based on what you have enabled in your system.  If it has not been turned on by default in your system then it may not be a feature you require.

 

Example: You will not have the Complete and Chiro Bill turned on if you are not a Chiropractor working out of Manitoba.
