Completing an appointment (Quick View)
A simplified version of this guide is available: Simplified guide: Complete an appointment
This guide will walk you through completing an appointment from Quick View and is applicable to all Consultant types, except Practices who are using Classic View.
When completing an appointment, youâll be taken to one of 4 pages for the 1st session - As shown in the diagram below. When you are seeing the client for their 2nd and subsequent session(s), you wonât be presented with the Disclaimer and Consent page (see diagram).
Completing an appointment is a mandatory step to enable accurate recording of the session, session count deduction from the client and for on time payment processing for work you have completed. If you do not complete the appointment, the payment will not be processed as the status of the appointment will appear as incomplete work.
