Report Description:

This report is intended to be run for a future date range, and will show the number of hours available and percentage of booked time for dates in the future period.

It is similar in layout to the Appointment Analysis report.

A separate section is shown for each selected practice (if Report By Individual Practice is chosen), and a summary with totals from all selected practices.

Each section shows the following information:

Summary graphic dial	This shows the total ‘Booked %’ value in graphical form, which corresponds to the value in the Booked % column for the total row in the table, i.e. the Booked % value for the entire reporting period.
Date	The date within the reporting period. If weekly or monthly options are chosen, then each row in the table represents a week or month period, for daily, each row represents a single day in the reporting period.
Days	An indication of the number of calendar days that this row covers. For daily, this will be 1.
Hours Available	The total number of unblocked hours in the appointment diary for this period.
Booked	The total number of available hours that were allocated to valid booked/completed appointments (this is the same as Hours Worked on the Appointment Analysis Report).
Booked %	Booked / Hours Available as a percentage.

A graphical plot area is shown below the table, and allows a line plot of the Hours Available, Booked, Booked % measures to be shown over the time period of the report.
