Providers can opt to receive Email notification when patients book with them through the practice appointment book and through online booking.
These notifications use a specified Email template.
Configuration options are for
No confirmation Emails,
All confirmation Emails or
Only confirmation Emails for appointments that are in advance of all other appointments (that are the most imminent appointments).
To configure EXACT to send booking-notification Emails to Providers
Select File > Providers to open the Provider File.
Use the selectors to select a Provider and then select the Appointments tab:
Configuration is by means of the Email appointments template box and the checkbox Only send an Email if it changes the booked time.
Select from the three possible configurations:
Don't send notifications (the template field is blank).
Send all appointment emails to the Provider: (un-checked is the default state)
Send appointment emails to the Provider when those bookings affect their next booked time (in other words, when the Provider now has an appointment in advance of what was previously expected):
Select the Save button at the top of the screen (above the tabs).
