Appointment statuses Planned, PtNote and PtNoteCompleted

Post by jarkkok » Mon Oct 11, 2021 12:15 pm

The link https://www.opendental.com/OpenDentalDo ... ppointment mentions couple AptStatuses I don't see in the GUI:
1. Planned: 6- Planned appointment. Only shows in Chart module. User not allowed to change this status, and it does not display as one of the options.
2. PtNote: 7- Patient "post-it" note on the schedule. Shows light yellow. Shows on day scheduled just like appt, as well as in prog notes, etc.
3. PtNoteCompleted: 8- Patient "post-it" note completed

Do we ever get those in responses when querying appointment details through the API? If so, what do those statuses really mean?

Yes, an API request will return appointments of any AptStatus.

More information on planned appointments can be found here https://www.opendental.com/manual213/apptplanned.html. PtNote/PtNoteCompleted appointments are described at the bottom of this page https://www.opendental.com/manual213/apptspatient.html.

Maybe we should not include these by default. We want the API to be easier to use without the vendors needing to learn a bunch of little details. Or we should at least address it in the API documentation.
