Getting to know the calendar
The calendar is where most of your day happens — booking, checking patients in, and seeing what's coming up next. Switch between practitioners and locations from the top of the screen, and pick a day or week view depending on what you need to see.

Reading an appointment
Each appointment is coloured by its appointment type, so you can recognise what's booked without opening it. Its status — scheduled, arrived, no-show, cancelled, or completed — is shown clearly on the card, and updates the moment anyone changes it.

Check today at a glance, from anywhere
Open the today panel from anywhere in ClinyPal, not just the calendar, to see how many appointments you have today, how many are left, and what's coming up next — useful when you're deep in a patient record and just need a quick check of the day.
