📄️ Scheduling Overview
The scheduling system is the heart of InSched. It provides a powerful, flexible interface for managing appointments, procedures, and other events in your practice.
📄️ Navigating the Schedule
InSched provides extensive navigation options through both the mouse and keyboard. Learning the keyboard shortcuts can dramatically increase your efficiency.
📄️ Creating and Editing Events
Events are the core of the InSched schedule. This page covers how to create, edit, and manage all types of events.
📄️ Event Status Workflow
Every event in InSched has a Status that tracks its lifecycle from creation through completion. Status changes are recorded in the Audit Trail.
📄️ Recurring Events
InSched supports comprehensive recurring event patterns, allowing you to create events that repeat on daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly schedules.
📄️ Blocks
Blocks are one of InSched's most powerful features. A Block sets aside time for specific types of events, providing visual guidance for scheduling and intelligent use of screen space.
📄️ Find First Available
The Find First Available feature helps you quickly locate open time slots that match specific criteria. Instead of manually scanning the schedule for openings, you can search for available blocks with the exact parameters you need.
📄️ Waiting List
InSched provides a waiting list feature to track patients who are waiting for appointments. This is useful for managing patients who need to be scheduled but don't yet have a confirmed date, or who are waiting for a cancellation to open up an earlier slot.
📄️ Views and Customization
InSched provides extensive control over how the schedule is displayed. You can create multiple custom views for different purposes and switch between them instantly.
📄️ Analysis View
The Analysis View is a visual tool that color-codes events based on how well they meet scheduling goals. It helps practice managers quickly identify cases that are falling behind target timelines.
📄️ Time Machine
The Time Machine is one of InSched's most powerful audit features. It lets you view exactly how the schedule appeared at any point in the past and step through the changes that were made over time.
📄️ Printing the Schedule
InSched provides flexible printing options for generating reports of scheduled events. You can print appointment lists, graphical schedule views, and superbills.
