Setting up Appointment Types
Appointment types are strings that represent categories of the appointments shown preceding the appointment subject.
When users add an appointment, they can select the appointment type from the "Subject" field.
By using appointment types, you can easily show the type of the appointment.
For example, setting up frequently used appointment types in your company such as company-wide meetings and leaving work early makes users easily set appointments.
a): An appointment type added by administrators
b): An appointment type set by default
c): An appointment type set by users
Appointment types can also be set by users.
While system administrators prepare menus for all users, users can add their own menus in a menu set by their system administrator.
For details, refer to Setting up Appointment Types in the personal settings.
Menus added by users are not displayed in the dropdown list of other users.
The appointment types added by the user is displayed above the appointment types added by system administrators.
