Hi, We have a number of empty slots (hours) available for each day for our patients to choose. Someone has already booked his appointment and we have had it confirmed. The problem is that on the website the same appointment seems to be available and anyone can book it. How can this be fixed? Thanks Eleni

Hi Eleni, can you please tell me how many connections do you have for that slot? Also is the same worker on both cases? Best regards, Nikola

Panagiotis_Symeonidis Staff replied 7 years ago

We have created one empty slot (for example at 19.00-19.30) and we have only one worker. The patient booked the slot and we have confirmed it. The problem is that on our website, the slot is still available for someone else to book.

Thanks in advance

Hi Eleni, that should not be the case. Can you please send me the link to the customers form so I can try it out?

Best regards,
Nikola

Kind Reminder

Hi Nikola,
I am sending you our link, but its in Greek.

http://foot-ankle.gr/%CF%81%CE%B1%CE%BD%CF%84%CE%B5%CE%B2%CE%BF%CF%8D/

Click on the empty field in order to see the: word “Πρώτη Επόσκεψη” means first appointment (is for 30 minutes), and the word “Επανεξέταση” means re-evaluation and its for 15 minutes. Please note that none of this hours is covering each other.

Thanks
Eleni

Hi Eleni, thanks for the link I have created one Appointment on 27. at 20h for “Πρώτη Επόσκεψη”. If I try to book it again it's taken so I can't do that. Can you also try it? Best regards, Nikola

Panagiotis_Symeonidis Staff replied 7 years ago

As i see it right now it is locked (red). What was the problem?

Thanks in advance

Nikola Loncar Staff replied 7 years ago

Hi Eleni, I am not sure I have just refreshed the page after creating appointment and everything worked well.

Best regards,
Nikola

Nicola,
We have made a lot of tests, and when an appointment is “pending” the available slot turns red. Once it is confirmed, the slot turns grey and it available again for someone else to book.
Could it be something in the settings? how can we tuckle this?

Thank you
Eleni

Hi, are you refresh the page after creating an Appointment?

Best regards,
Nikola

Panagiotis_Symeonidis Staff replied 7 years ago

Yes usually we refresh the page in order to see if it is updated on our website. Is this a problem?

Nikola Loncar Staff replied 7 years ago

You need to refresh the page after creating Appointment. But that should not be the problem.

Best regards,
Nikola

Panagiotis_Symeonidis Staff replied 7 years ago

Hi Nikola,

The problem still exists… after we confirm by e-mail the appointment to someone, then it turns again gray for someone else to book.

Please let me know if you have found out why.
Thanks in advance

Kind Regards
Eleni

Hi Eleni, if there is only one slot then it will be taken (gray) after first customer make appointment. Maybe want to say it is free to be taken again? Can you please tell me do you have localization for backend part of plugin? Best regards, Nikola Best regards, Nikola

Dear Nikola, We have tried the English version for the plugins, and for a couple of days it seemed to work fine. But now the slots are available to be taken again by someone else (double bookings). Thanks in advance Kind regards Eleni

Hi Eleni, it's hard to tell when I can't see settings. If you are using extension plugin then if you remove it from Google Calendar it will be free as well inside EA. Maybe users click on cancel link inside mail. There are some cases where Mail server will open links from mail and cancel appointment without user confirm. Best regards, Nikola

Panagiotis_Symeonidis Staff replied 7 years ago

Dear Nikola,

Since the problem still insists, i was wondering if it is possible to give you access (let me know day and hour that you will be available) for you to see the easy appointments settings on our platform and let us know if there is a problem.

Please contact me at: pouliou.eleni@gmail.com

Thanks in advance

Kind regards
Eleni
