Arrived – This will turn the appointment purple, and add the Client to the list of Arrivals (on the left-hand side below the calendar).
- After a Client has been added to the Arrivals list, they can be selected and marked as In Session, which will then turn the appointment green.
Did Not Arrive – This will turn your appointment dark orange.
Cancelled – This will cancel the appointment.
