Custom message on Appointment Status Change

[Joshua Barrs]

In this example, you can specify a custom message to pop up on screen when you change the Appointment Status to ‘ARRIVED’.

This was a real world example for a Clinic that needed a reminder to check a patients temperature as they arrived for an appointment.

You can adjust it to any appointment status name you like, but it does have to match exactly.

**This only works if you update the status from the diary right-click menu, NOT if you change the status from within the appointment.**

 

[1] Click TOOLS | SCRIPT EDITOR to show the Script Editor screen

[2] Locate “ucDiaryFrame” and the “OnAfterAppStatusChanged” event

[3] Copy & Paste the following script into the Script Editor :-

 

using System.Data;

DataRow row = (Params[0] as DataRow);

long appstatus_id = PSLib.cDBFuncs.ToLong(row["appstatus_id"]);

string status = cGlobals.DB.GetQuickDBString("select name from appstatus where id=" + appstatus_id);

if (status == "Arrived")

{ PSDevEx.cMessages.WarningBox("enter some reminder text here", "IMPORTANT REMINDER"); }

 

Enter your text between the quotes where it says “enter some reminder text here”.
