The bottom area will only display if Online Scheduling is purchased. The Reason For Visit Display Name dictates what the appointment type looks like to Online users, the Patient Type defines which patients can see the type, and the checkbox Allow Same Day Scheduling will allow appointments to be scheduled on the same day.

Removing a Type

To remove an appointment type, select it in the sidebar and click the red minus button above. This will remove the record if it is not tied to any existing appointments.

Change & Delete will change the type and delete the previously selected record.
