Hi

As I’m sure many practices do we have different clinicians working on different days. Is there a way of only displaying the diary/ies for whoever is working that day, rather than having all 4 displayed but only having 2 working? The columns get very narrow and hard to read with 4 books open at once, but it’s a faff viewing and hiding individual books all the time. Thanks

This is actually an excellent suggestion and one I was thinking about but forgot to post a request.  The ability to page through a diary or a week and Dentally only showing those columns where a clinician has an appointment booked in, would be very useful.  We sometimes cannot see the Pending status of a patient who we thought we checked in but didnt and left a patient waiting.

 

Or you try and click on the name but end up clicking on the appointment space and it ends up trying to edit the appointment and the frustration of trying to close that open dialogue.

We would also like this! We have 19 diaries, I generally just leave them all open because of the risk that if I hide a diary for today, I’ll forget to unhide it and then wonder where that clinician has gone. 

Also, when adding a new clinician/diary why is it automatically hidden?

This is also something we would like, It was discussed when we first moved to dentally but haven't heard of any progress since.
