Q. Explanation Of The Calendar Legend
There are 5 session statuses, they are:
- OPEN SESSION: when a session is added to the calendar, it has the open status. This means the session has not been tracked or saved as complete. When the session is saved, the status will change to one of the other status types. You know a session is open when it has two dashes (--) before the start time.
- CANCELED SESSION: a canceled session status means the session has been canceled and the client is NOT charged a service fee. You can see canceled sessions on the calendar where a "C" is placed before the start time.
- MISSED SESSION: a missed session means the session has been saved as missed and the client IS charged a service fee. You can see the missed sessions on the calendar where an "M" is placed before the start time.
- SAVED SESSION: a saved session has been marked as saved and the client is charged a service fee. You can see the saved sessions on the calendar where a " ?" is placed before the start time.
- LOCKED SESSION: a locked session is a session that has been added to an open or paid invoice. When an invoice is created, sessions on the invoice are not allowed to be edited. If you want to edit a locked session, you need to delete the invoice where the session is located. A session is locked to protect the integrity of your financial data. You can see locked sessions on the calendar where a "????" is placed before the start time.
