Changing the colour of a slot type

To adjust the colour of a slot type in EMIS Web, open Appointments Configuration and select Slot Types. Find or create the slot type you want to change, then choose the Foreground colour (text) and Background colour (appointment box shading). Save your changes.

Colour-coding different slot types can help receptionists and clinicians quickly see which appointments are urgent, routine or specialised.

If needed, refresh your Appointment Book to see the updated colours. Ensure you have the correct permissions (for example, Manage Patient Administration) to make these changes.
