  • Appointment Refresh Time
    The appointment screen, when displayed on the screen, refreshes itself automatically after a specified number of seconds. Therefore schedule updates, appointment rescheduling, changes in status of an appointment can all be seen by you, when updated by any other user of the system from a different machine. You can set the refresh interval in the text box provided. The minimum number of seconds is set at 15.
  • Ask for Staff Key
    The application asks for staff key from users before making various changes. For example the application will ask you for your staff key whenever you register a new patient, create a bill, make a payment, make changes in the intray if you are a doctor. A form will be displayed when the system requires you to input your staff key for authentication. If this setting is unchecked, then the system will never ask for the staff key. It is recommended to keep this setting on in medium to large practices for audit purposes.
