Statuses are grouped into four categories: Scheduled, Cannot Complete, Canceled, and Completed. Each status must map to one of the predefined status categories. If the status categories make sense to your users, you can reuse the status categories as statuses.
| Status Picklist Values | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Scheduled | The appointment slot is confirmed. |
| Dispatched | This value isn’t relevant for Intelligent Appointment Management. |
| In Progress | This value isn’t relevant for Intelligent Appointment Management. |
| Cannot Complete | The slot is no longer available. |
| Completed | The appointment is completed. |
| Canceled | The provider or the patient has canceled the appointment. This field is required. The user can cancel an appointment only if status value is configured for the Canceled category. |
| Not Started | This value isn’t relevant for Intelligent Appointment Management. |
| None | This value isn’t relevant for Intelligent Appointment Management. |
You can have multiple values for a category, but multiple categories can’t map to the same status value.
