Almost every practice double-books some time slots - widely known old method to deal with no-show rates, and practices actively use it.
I'm finding hard to believe (well, unless you say so :) that your Millennium Front-End does not allow to put two patients into a single time-slot...
You are correct - we cannot create "booked" Appointment into already occupied Slot.
Hence we're trying to "propose".
When we create "proposed" appointment, we cannot set a reference to a Slot (don't have it), so according to the documentation, we must specify Location and set status as "needs-action".
We also specify requestedPeriod - and we really want to be very specific about it.
But the issue is that Millennium book this appointment to a random free slot to a random Practitioner at this Location instead of time we requested.
Not only we want Millennium to stick to our proposed requestedPeriod, we want it to also consider Practitioner we provide (not supported now).
We understand this is something you currently don't support, but is there any workaround, or a chance you build support in the near future?
Again double-booking is a very basic functionality every single scheduler has had since beginning of days, and it's up to a particular practice policy to allow it or not.
Please advise.
Thanks,
