  1. Log-in to: https://hms.teletask.com/, your email address is your username.

  2. Click on Settings  in the top menu bar.

  3. Choose Scheduler from the list of available setting categories.

  4. Scroll towards the bottom and locate Family Appointments.



  5. Check the box for Add Family Appointment



  6. Check the boxes for the scheduling types you want to enable.



    1. Same resources, different times, allows you to stack the appointments in the scheduler utilizing a single Resource.



    2. Same resource, same time, this allows you to create an appointment for the longest appointment but include the other appointments within the same appointment time frame for a single Resource.



    3. Across resources, allows you to schedule an individual appointment for each of your Resources.
      Note: If you do not have enough Resources for the number of appointments, you will receive an error message.
