How to Assign a Provider to a Scheduler Column
Summary:
Each provider in your practice who has been added to ABELDent can be assigned to one or more designated columns in the Appointment Scheduler.
In addition, each column assigned will have a title that appears as a heading at the top of the column. By default, ABELDent will title each column with the name of the Usual Provider assigned to that column. You can simply accept this title, or change the title to something more descriptive.
Note: If you are running ABELDent SQL, you can display up to 135 columns in Scheduler on multiple customized pages. See How to Set Up Scheduler Pages.
Steps:
1. On the Appointment Scheduler Setup window, click the Update Columns Headings tab. The Update Column Headings tab appears. You can display up to 135 columns in Scheduler on multiple customized pages. See Scheduler Pages.
2. Select the Column ID from the list. The IDs available are: Numeric (1-9), alpha (A to Z) and special characters !@#$%^&*( )3. In the Column Title field, type the title you want to appear at the top of the column you selected, or leave it blank to default the title to the Usual Provider's name.
