Managing Appointments is simple with Nookal. Read below to learn how to update Appointment Statuses, Move Appointments in the Diary and more.

Updating an Appointment Status

The following statuses are available:

Confirmed – This will add a green flag to the corner of your appointment.

Arrived – This will turn the appointment purple, and add the Client to the list of Arrivals (on the left-hand side below the calendar).

The Arrival status of Clients resets 2 hours after being set to Arrived, and at midnight.

Clients will only appear in the Arrivals list if they are set to Arrived on the same day as their appointment.

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 and remove it from the Diary.

In Classic view, click on the Status tab and click on the required status.

In Fresh view, click Set Status at the bottom of the window.

Select the status and click Save.

Resetting an Appointment Status

If an appointment had a status set by mistake, It is possible to change it, as long as it is not Cancelled.

Cancelling an Appointment

If an Appointment needs to be removed from the Diary, it will need to be Cancelled.
