To change the office's hours of operation for just one day -- or just a few days -- follow these steps:
Advance the calendar to the first day on which a change is to be made.
Click ApptBook.
Do one of the following:
In cases where the office is not normally open at all on this day, click Open for business - Override all books for this day. This will enable booking/scheduling as if it were a normal business day.
To modify the office's business hours on a regular business day, click Normal open/close time applies.
In some cases, a pop-up screen will display and offer the option of either removing or editing the non-normal open/close times. Make the desired selection and click OK. In other cases, there will be no option.
In cases where a pop-up window is displayed, you can edit the non-normal hours. Make the desired changes to the times displayed in the fields.
Enter the desired starting and ending dates for the period during which this change applies. In the case of a one-day change, enter the same date for both the From and the Thru fields.
The software displays a "Max" date, beyond which this change cannot be applied.
In the Repeat every __ days field, type 1 for a single-day change, or type a higher number for a longer change, as desired.
Click OK to save the changes and close the pop-up window.
The changes will be visible immediately on this computer. It might be necessary to close and reopen PracticeWorks on the other computers in the office so that all computers reflect the changes.
