    About this task

    Vaccine Administration Management provides an appointment configuration that you can modify to meet your organization's requirements.

    Appointments are automatically scheduled for users according to the configuration that you set up. However, users can select a different appointment time in the portal if the automatically scheduled time is not convenient.

    Important:
    This default appointment scheduling configuration is applied across all centers. Beginning with version 4 of Vaccine Administration Management, advanced appointment scheduling configuration is available. To learn more about how to enable and configure the feature, see Configure advanced appointment scheduling for a center.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Vaccine Administration > Administration > Service Configurations.
