The Doctor Schedule page lets you manage vets’ shifts and time off in one place. You can add one-time slots or recurring schedules, edit or delete individual entries, apply changes to a single day or to the entire recurring series, and reorder how doctors appear on the booking calendar.

How to access

1. From the main menu, click Appointments.
2. Click Doctor Schedule.
3. Use the Calendar view or the List view from the icons on the right.

Adding a one-time shift or time off

1. Click Add Doctor Schedule.
2. Pick the Date.
3. Choose one or more Doctors on duty (multi-select).
4. Set the Type:
   • Shift — the doctor is scheduled to work.
   • Doctor’s time off — personal leave, vacation, or training.
5. Set the Start time and End time.
6. Click Confirm.

Adding a recurring shift or time off

From the same Add form, configure how the slot repeats:

• Daily — every day, including weekends.
• Weekly — same weekday as the starting date (e.g., every Monday).
• Weekdays — Monday through Friday only.
• Custom — pick your own interval (e.g., every two weeks on Wednesday).

Then choose the Pre-schedule length: 1, 3, 6, or 12 months. The system calculates the end date and creates every shift automatically.

Editing shifts and time off

You can edit any entry from the Calendar view or the List view:

1. Click the shift or time-off block.
2. Adjust the date, doctor, type, times, or remarks.
3. Choose how the change applies:
   • Today’s schedule — only this one occurrence.
   • Today’s schedule and subsequent schedules — today and all future occurrences in this recurring series.
   • All relevant schedules — past, today, and future occurrences in the series.
4. Click Confirm.

Deleting shifts and time off

1. Click the entry you want to remove.
2. Click Delete.
3. Pick the same three-level scope (this day only / today and forward / all occurrences) and confirm.

Doctor sorting on the calendar

1. Click Doctor Sorting.
2. Drag a row up or down to the position you want.
3. Click Confirm. The new order takes effect on the booking calendar immediately.

Tip

Use Weekly recurrence with a 6- or 12-month horizon when you onboard a new doctor — the calendar fills up automatically and patients can book months ahead. Switch to one-off entries only for sick leave and training.
