Date Location Option
The Date Location option provides a layer of granularity that is perfect for multi-date events where details shift depending on the day.
Here is a breakdown of how to maximize this feature:
Where to Find It
The input field is located directly below the Calendar on the Appointments page. It is an option for Normal event types only.
Practical Use Cases
This field is designed to handle "exceptions to the rule" without requiring you to create entirely separate event types.
- Variable Room Assignments: If a seminar moves from "Room A" on Monday to "The Auditorium" on Wednesday, you can specify this for each individual date.
- Specific Service Details: If a clinic offers different vaccine types (Trivalent vs. Quadrivalent) on different days, this field allows you to clarify that for the patient.
- Instructor Changes: If different staff members are covering specific dates of a multi-day workshop.
Using the Macro
To ensure your participants see this specific information, you must link the input field to your emails and setup using the macro field.
Macro Field: $(D_LOCATION)
How to Implement on the Scheduling page:
- Navigate to the Settings / CUI Messages page.
- Go to the Text View / Box Message section.
- Insert $(D_LOCATION) into your message template.
How to Implement on your Email Notifications page:
- Navigate to the Settings / Notification Setup page.
- Insert $(D_LOCATION) into your message template
Example Template: "Your appointment is confirmed for $(DATE). Location/Note: $(D_LOCATION)"
When the message is sent, the system will automatically replace the macro with the specific text you entered in that field for that specific date.
