Main Appointment Book Area (Multiday)

Display Options

By default, when the the multiday appointment book option is first selected, it displays five days (Monday to Friday) across the screen:

5-column multiday

Other options are the 7-day appointment book (Monday to Sunday), 14-day, and 28-day.

Each option is selected by clicking the appropriate button from those on the right-hand side of the header bar:

Day buttons

Whichever mode was active at the time you last closed the appointment book or exited EXACT is 'remembered' the next time you open the appointment book.

Due to space constraints, the date display for the columns in each mode is slightly different:

5 day

5-day button example

7 day

7-day button example

14 day

14-day button example

28 day

28-day button example

If the appointment book screen is resized, the column headers may also switch between different date modes as appropriate for the column widths, depending on your screen size and resolution.

TIP: If EXACT is used on a PC with two monitors, the multiday appointment book can be dragged out to cover both screens. This allows a reasonable level of detail even on the 28-day view, and is ideal for reception use.

When in 14 or 28-day mode, there is not enough room to display all the information for the appointment, as these modes are intended to give you an overview of appointments for a fortnight or month, rather than detailed information. However, you can view a particular appointment's details by hovering your mouse pointer over the appointment, which will display a tool tip, as in the following example:

Alternatively, you can double-click the appointment to open it, or revert to one of the other display modes by clicking on either the 5 button button or the 7 button button.
