Additional Tips
- Each view in the Appointment Book — day, week, or month — can have up to four flip tabs.
- When you select the tab’s Text Color, make sure it is dark enough to show on a gray background.
- If you need to delete a flip tab, open Flip Tabs Setup and change the type to Not Used. There is no delete button for flip tabs.
- Flip tabs are workstation specific, so you can set up the tabs on the workstation that works best for your scheduling needs, without impacting other network users.
