Viewing appointments graphically
To view the appointments graphically:
- Select Appointment > Appointment. Any appointments matching the default selection criteria described in the step below are displayed.
-
Specify these fields as
necessary to filter and change the displayed appointment criteria:
- Date/Time
- Select the initial date and initial time for the appointments displayed in the Gantt chart. The default value for this field is the current date and time rounded back to the top of the hour minus two hours. Two hours are subtracted from the current time to include a view within the Gantt chart of appointments potentially still in progress.
- Number of Hours
- Specify the total number of hours for the time range of appointments included on the Gantt chart. The default value for this field is 8 hours displayed on the chart as a range of 2 hours earlier than the current time to 6 hours after the current time. The maximum number of hours that can be specified is 24.
- Door - Start
- Specify the initial dock door to include in the chart view. The default value for this field is blank.
- Door - End
- Specify the last dock door to include in the chart view. The default value for this field is blank.
Note: When the Gantt chart is initially displayed, the appointments in the chart reflect the default selection criteria for the Date/Time, Number of Hours, Door - Start, and Door - End fields. These default values, though, are not displayed within the fields. The fields are empty/blank. - Click Refresh. The Gantt chart is updated and redisplayed based on the criteria you specify.
