Learn about Appointment Breaks
To begin recording an Appointment Break, simply open an Appointment and then click the Manage Appointment Breaks button at the bottom of the screen to bring up the dialogue box.
Once selected, you can create a new break by selecting the + New button on the right hand side of the screen, as shown below.
Once you have added a new Appointment Break, you will be prompted to populate a number of fields detailing the break. Here, you can assign the relevant Date & Time information, the relevant Resource(s), the break category and write custom notes.
In order to maintain the parameters of an Appointment, Maica will not allow you to create an Appointment Break outside the Date or Time of the Scheduled Appointment. You also must assign a Category in order to submit a Note.
Within an Appointment Break, you can choose to create a corresponding Timesheet. You do so by simply clicking the toggle, as shown below.
If the Timesheet is created, it must be assigned a Timesheet Activity.
The Break will be stored as an Unavailability record against the allocated Resource.
