thx for taking the time to let us know your experiences.

I will look into setting up different appointment durations for different practitioners in a future release.

In the meantime if you don't find anything suitable and affordable, you can set a shorter "default treatment time duration" eg 10 minutes, which would be available for each practitioner or room, and then alot  3 blocks for a half hour appointment for the practitioner with a half hour list, 2 blocks for each appointment for the practitioner with a 20 min list etc

a bit messy maybe

thx again for your comments

yes -

for accounts. click the green accounts gem middle top from page 1
choose the first tab called Summary, and look at the very left column "business accounts"

if you haven't added an extra account or changed a name of an account, just choose your year or month, or practice location,  combination, and click Total.

click clear all, to get new totals and choose "detail" for details and reports.
if you click "back" from the first report view you will see basic listing 1 and 2 as an option -
basic listing 2 has the number of records/patients seen.


for general total database statistics - click the blue "statistics"gem from the top menu

hi Alex


i must admit to using diaries and pens in the practices, so the schedules area doesn't get as much evolution - it was a complicated beast to set up over many years.


the arrows format (rather than a scroll bar)  in day and week view, are necessary to allow for the notes and details that can be included in the entries.

you can print out  the month, week and day entries (choose print from the file menu)

and i should like to add a single page print view of these page views in a future version.


(don't forget the week view available from the opening "month" view in schedules - by clicking the little arrows in the very right column)


i will hopefully include a scrollbar single page print view in  a future version.

let us know any other suggestions/bugbears

with thx

Morning
Was having a play around with the demo last night and wanted to get the schedule to come up where i can see a whole day at a glance...and maybe use my scroll bar to go from morning down to afternoon. Is this possible.

Hi,
I have been looking at your crystal solutions practitioner software. I am a chiropractor and am a little unsure if and how it would be appropriate for my line of work. What I have seen I certainly like. Can one gather any statistics/reports from the program...ie; weekly/monthly patient numbers....financial info etc.
Many Thanks,

different practitioners working to different appointment durations?

Hi Jol

The software was very good I thought but just not quite what we were looking for - we needed a day-to-day appointment system.  In particular the ability to have different practitioners working to different appointment durations, and software which prevented double bookings was quite important for us.  Having said that, if I was a sole practitioner more interested in clinical audit and admin functions I think I would have gone with crystal solutions.

Thanks for the demo and best of luck with your future software.
