How ezyVet Appointment Status Controls Check-In and Check-Out

In Instinct Treatment Plan (ITP), check-in and check-out are driven entirely by each appointment's status in ezyVet. ITP checks ezyVet for active appointments every 2 minutes, so status changes made in ezyVet appear in ITP shortly after.

How appointment status affects ITP

When an appointment moves to a checked-in status, a visit automatically opens for that patient in ITP. When it moves to a checked-out status, the visit closes.

Checked-in statuses (open a visit in ITP):

  • In waiting room

  • In consultation

  • In procedure

  • Awaiting collect

  • Admit for surgery

  • In hospital

  • In discharge

Checked-out statuses (close a visit in ITP):

  • No status

  • Unconfirmed

  • Confirmed

  • In transit

  • Departed

  • Interim report

  • Referral done

  • Complete

Note: Only one appointment for a patient should have a checked-in status at a time.


Patient and client data sync

Patient and client information (name, species, breed, and client contact details) transfers from ezyVet to ITP at check-in. If this information changes after check-in, select the 3-dot menu to the left of a patient on a Status Board and choose Refresh Patient Info from the patient’s menu. The next check-in pulls the latest information from ezyVet.


Frequently asked questions

A patient's treatment sheet disappeared right after check-in. What happened?

This usually means a second appointment for the same patient also has a checked-in status in ezyVet. ITP always uses the earliest checked-in appointment, so a later one can make the treatment sheet seem to disappear. In ezyVet, find the earlier appointment and change its status to a checked-out status (for example, Complete). The treatment sheet should reappear in ITP within about 2 minutes.
