When using the number keypad
in the schedule, the decimal point works as a
delete and the zero works as an insert.
The
Home key will take you to the top of the scheduled day
(or to the top of any list).
Just two
keystrokes will take you from any screen to today's
schedule: F9 then Select.
Shift+F9
provides quick access to a list of today's patients where
you can easily schedule a patient's next appointment, post
today's charges and collect for today's visit before the
patient leaves the office. pcLink users can just click on
the button for Today's Patients.
We recommend monthly maintenance of your
schedule, to keep it running efficiently. Each month you
should follow these steps:
Select PurgeSchedule to remove old
appointment book columns.
From File Maintenance, Select
Reorganize
Files, then
Select Schedule (all
users must be logged off for this to run).
You can now open
future days in your appointment book(s)
"I have used other systems and they are no way near as user-friendly as Datacon. You are able to see different ways to get to one area. The system will ask you a question before proceeding to the next screen, which helps prevent careless mistakes." Irma Esparza, Dr. Valentine - Modesto.
