How Do I Find a Free Slot?
When booking an appointment, you can find a free slot in the diary by clicking 'Find Free Slot'.
A window will pop up (see above) that will allow you to search for any free slots that are available. Use the drop-down menus at the top left to select the day of the week, appointment type, member of staff and branch. Then, select the appropriate time ranges in the boxes to the right.
For example, if the patient would like to be seen any time after midday, select 12.00 in the left hand box and the final slot time in the right hand box (see below).
Then, click the magnifying glass icon at the far right of this window to search for free slots.
If there are free slots available for the criteria you have chosen, the results will show up in the box at the bottom left. Click the day the patient would like and then, the next window will be populated with the time slots available.
If one of the time slots is suitable, highlight it by left clicking and then click 'Select' in the top left corner to book the slot. You will then be presented with the appointment booking window. See 'How Do I Book An Appointment' for more information on this section of Flex.
