To ease the imported Reservations handling, the system provides separation of those Bookings by system Cruise.

  • The Unassigned Cruise Bookings grid.

    This grid lists all imported Cruise Treatments Reservations sorted by the scheduled Treatment Date & Time. The sorting order can be modify by clicking on the grid column Headers.

    • A smaller edition of the main Reservations & Schedules screen.

      Displays all current (already confirmed) Appointments for the selected date in gray color to distinguish those Appointments from the Unassigned Appointments that you selected on the top grid. The system is able to process it and propose the correct Therapist Schedule according to the predefined Treatment Date & Time.

As soon, as an available period found, the system will place the Unassigned Treatment Reservation into the Reservations & Schedules time scale on the lower part of the screen, colored in Yellow to identify it as an Expected Appointments.

    There are only two (2) options available for the Unassigned Expected Appointments:
    • Assign Room & Confirm Booking

      The Unassigned Treatment Appointment is ready to be confirm and added into the system as a regular Expected Treatment Reservation assigned to a valid & available Date, Time & Therapist. The last step is to define the Treatment Room.

    • Edit Reservation

      The system provides a way to edit specific reservation data before we can proceed to confirm the booking.

    Note:

    The System will not allow updating the Treatment and Price for imported Prepaid treatment Reservations.

    As soon as you select the Room and confirms the selected Unassigned Treatment, the Treatment will appear in the Reservations Schedule in gray color similar to the rest of the regular Bookings. At the same time, it will disappear from the Unassigned Bookings grid on top for the user to continue confirming the rest of the Unassigned Bookings still listed in the grid.

    If no availability for requested Period found, the system will place the Unassigned Treatment Reservation into the first Therapist Schedule colored in Red indicating the overlap with another existing Appointment or Time Block. There is still the option to assign the Appointment to another Time and/or Therapist by either selecting Edit Reservation or move the Red colored Reservation Block using the drag and drop method and position it to the desired available Time and/or Therapist.
