Find an appointment

Search the Appointment Book for all bookings that have been made for a patient, then open or delete any of the appointments found.

Considerations:

  • The change branch, press F3 and choose from the Select Branch screen.
  • You can't search for a non-patient booking as the person has not been registered.
