This is my first time to start to poke around the openEMR code base, and I wanted to know if anyone knew where I could start looking for modifying the appointments module, specifically being able to add a new category for appointments. What I would like to do is add a category “online” so that an appointment could be made for a patient that is “online” and in the patient portal they would see the details when they login. Any help would be much appreciated!

Hai,

For modifying the “Appointment and Scheduling” module you need to look into the following file:

/interface/main/calendar/add_edit_event.php

And also in order to add “categories” to the appointments, you can add it under “Administration->other->calendar->Categories” .

Note: Category values are inserted into the table “openemr_postcalendar_categories”

Hope This Helps.

Thanks
