    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    Wichtig:
    Mass booking doesn’t currently support inventory-based scheduling.

    Prozedur

    1. Create a temporary table.
      The table should be either:
      • Extend sys_user.
      • The user field in the table should have a reference to the sys_user.
    2. Import the following health history data for each user into the temporary table.
      • User
      • Preferred vaccination center
      • Age group
      • Allergies to medications, food, a vaccine component, or latex (Yes/No)
      • Serious reaction or fainted or nearly fainted during or after vaccination (Yes/No)
      • Seizures or history of brain or nervous system problems (Yes/No)
      • Long-term health problem with heart disease, lung disease, asthma, kidney disease, metabolic disease like diabetes, anemia, or other blood disorder (Yes/No)
      Hinweis:
      This data is required to book appointments for users. If users book the appointments in the self-service portal, the users provide this information at the time of booking. When a user with the admin role mass-books appointments for users, the data must be imported instead.
      For more information about importing data, see Import sets.
    3. Navigate to Vaccine Administration Management > Administration > Mass Booking Configurations and click New.
    4. Enter a name to describe the users included in the configuration.
    5. In the Program field, select the vaccination program to book appointments for.
    6. In the Table Name field, select the temporary table that you created.
    7. In the following fields, select the corresponding column from the temporary table to map the user data from the temporary table to the user's appointment.
      • Health history
      • Vaccine reaction
      • Age group
      • Preferred center
      • User
      • Long term health issues
      • Allergies
    8. In the Conditions field, add filter conditions to define which users to book appointments for.
    9. To complete the configuration, click Submit.
      • The configuration is saved but the appointments aren’t scheduled yet.
      • If a consumer or patient record doesn’t exist for any user that has an appointment is booked, these records are created for the user.

    Nächste Maßnahme

    When you're ready to schedule the appointments, return to the configuration record and click Process Booking.
    Hinweis:
    Whenever you process a booking, a new record gets created on the Mass Booking Jobs tab. Use this tab to view the progress of the scheduled appointments. For example, you can view the number of total appointments booked, appointments booked in a preferred center, the number of bookings failed for users, and so on.
