Diary Introduction

When you first log in to emma, select the Diary button and then you will be presented with options for views:
You should choose to view either by location or by practitioner (initial default) and then select the one(s) you want. In the case of practitioners, select the ones you wish to view, then click on submit. In the case of Locations, select the Location from the Drop down menu which appears at the bottom.
It is generally recommended that you select location view, and choose to hide unused rooms. Emma will store and remember your preferred view and present that as your default option from then on. If you go to My Details, you can tell emma where you normally work and it will always take you to that location from then on.
Having chosen your data to view, you may then pick a day by clicking on the day you need in the calender, or a week by clicking on the red triangle of that week. Month view may be activated by clicking on the red square.

You can choose to arrange your view by practitioner or by location (default).
Be aware that any practitioner may be in any clinic and you should look at the location in the title bar when examining the week or day view from the doctor view...

Common mistakes include using Doctor view and opening new diaries for them accidentally. Beware of doing this, particularly if you allow online booking....as patients may book in to see doctors who aren't actually working...
