Using Event End Time

When you use End Time to configure the end times for the events within an event chain, the Interval minutes are added to the end time of the previous event. The event end time is determined by the duration of the event. End time enables you to add time between events. Formulas for Setting Up Event Start Times using "End Time" Previous Event Start Time + Duration = Event End Time Event End Time + Interval = Next Event Start Time Example: 8:00 (event 1 start time) + 30 minutes (duration) = 8:30 (event 1 end time) 8:30 (event 1 end time) + 10 minutes (interval) = 8:40 (event 2 start time) 8:40 (event 2 start time) + 15 minutes (duration) = 8:55 (event 2 end time) 8:55 (event 2 end time) + 0 minutes (interval) = 8:55 (event 3 start time) 8:55 (event 3 start time) + 15 minutes (duration) = 9:10 (event 3 end time) 9:10 (event 3 end time) + 15 minutes (interval) = 9:25 (event 4 start time) Parent topic: Start Times for Events in an Event Chain

Start Times for Events in an Event Chain

You can set up the events within an event chain to occur concurrently or sequentially. The start time for each event within an event chain is controlled by configuring the interval between the events. The interval can be based on number of minutes, hours or days. Using Start Time or End Time in the interval setup controls whether the start time for the next event is based on the start time or end time of the previous event.

Configure Event Chain Intervals

An Interval is defined for events within an event chain to determine the time between the previous and next event in the chain. The interval specifies when the next event in the chain starts. For example, you can have a two-event chain with an interval of 15 minutes applied at the end time of the first event. Therefore, the start time of the second event equals the end time of the first event plus 15 minutes. Note: In the Appointment Book window, you can override the appointment date and start time for any event in the event chain except the first event. To do so, double-click an event in the Resources field on the Add Appointment window. In the Specify Date/Time for Event fields, select the desired date and time for the event. In NextGen® Enterprise PM, select Admin > Scheduling Admin. Note: When you select the Enable Enterprise Appointment Scheduling option in Practice Preferences window, the Scheduling Admin option on the Admin menu displays the following two options: Enterprise Pra
