ezyVet kiosk system: General controls
A practice manager can control which types of records clients can make during check-in. And they can control how the ezyVet Kiosk app shows information to clients. For example, a practice manager can make it mandatory for clients to enter referring veterinarian information during check-in. Or they can tell the ezyVet Kiosk app to show appointment times as a list format.
To make changes, a practice manager uses settings that show in the Permissions tab of a kiosk system configuration:
This table gives the function of each setting:
| Setting name | Function |
|---|---|
| Guests can create new Appointments | If a person does not have an online portal account in ezyVet, they can make an appointment. |
| Prevent guests from creating a new account (if enabled, account must be made manually from ezyVet) | If a person does not have an online portal account in ezyVet, they cannot make an account during check-in. A staff member must use ezyVet to make an account for them. |
| Only make the first available slot bookable | Clients can select only the first available appointment time in ezyVet Kiosk. |
