Appointment Inspector
The Appointment Inspector displays the details of the selected transaction appointment. This inspector provides a view of all aspects of the selected transaction appointment from the perspective of the facility in the current scope. You can keep the Appointment Inspector open at all times as you work in other views and forms, and you can move and resize it as needed. To reflect the updates from the system, N4 refreshes the information displayed in the Appointment Inspector every 30 seconds.
The Appointment Inspector displays the basic information for an appointment in the following areas:
