Question trees
A question tree helps a client easily use the online portal to make an appointment that automatically uses the most applicable appointment type. And it makes it easy for organizations to get client and patient information directly from clients. The settings and configuration of a question tree show in the Questions tab of an e-booking or kiosk configuration.

Results
A result is always the result of a question. The result tells ezyVet which appointment type to use for an appointment. As an alternative to an appointment type, the result can tell ezyVet to show text information to the client. For example, a result could show Please make a phone call to the practice at 9:00 AM.
