Fuse tables «Consultation Hours Appointments» and «Bookings»

1 Initial Problem

A usability test in Novermber 2023 produced the finding that the tables "Consultation Hours Appointments" and "Bookings" are

• hard to find
• hard to operate 
• arranged in wrong order

2 Conceptual Summary

• The tables "Consultation Hours Appointments" and "Bookings" are presented in one single table. 
• The secondary panels in the Consultation Hours Appointments "Calendar" and "Calendar Selection" are no longer dispalyed. All available slots and all booked appointments are displayed. The selection via the secondary panels is discontinued. The view control ensures the number of entries is managable.  
• Another View Control ist offered to allow for looking only at booked or open slots.  
• If multiple Appointments per slot are possible. One row is created per person and slot. 
• Open Appointment slots have the Action "Edit Slot", "Assign Users" and "Delete Slot". 
• Booked Appointment slots have the Action "Delete Booking" and "Cancel Booking".

9 Discussion

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], 22 JAN 2024: Suggestion is highly appreciated and feature scheduled for ILIAS 10.

10 Implementation

There was one row per date implemented and not several. The usability was not good enough with several lines. IF serveral people booked the same slot they get listed. It is possible to cancel ony one of thors bookers individually.
