Appointments

For an appointment to display in the Appointments section of the start page, the user signed in to VertiGIS FM must be indicated in the Employees field of the appointment form.
Appointments Section on the VertiGIS FM Maintenance Start Page
Appointments are events that can be scheduled for any object in VertiGIS FM and are not to be confused with maintenance strategy orders. Because an appointment must be associated with an object (for example, a device or component), you must create it on the details page for an object. You cannot create them on the search page, like you can for other event-based objects.
