2 years ago It may be worthwhile to look at the front end and what API's it uses to insert appointment data into the database. If we implemented this onto the CR we could then perhaps integrate the front end (once it is working) to use this as well.
With the front end being down, all appointments need to be scheduled by hand with SQL. It would be very helpful if we could schedule appointments from the Control Room as well. Look to the front end for all of the different options available, and replicate the appointment scheduling behavior there.
It would also be extremely useful to modify or remove appointments from the Control Room. This way we don't have to do it by hand.
Another idea is to add an appointment calendar. Think something similar to Google calendar, but for appointments.
We could also add a new interval appointment type. An appointment that executes within a specific timeframe specified day. This would be helpful for example if the user wished to track the sun every Friday in June for example. Google calendar once again does this very well and could be useful to help reduce tedious scheduling work.
Run these ideas past our clients. I see them all being useful at some point in the future.
