To hide patient names

How to get there

From the Schedule menu, select Calendar.

The Calendar page displays.

On the Calendar page, clicktap the View menu and set the Hide patient names toggle to On
ClickTap Done.

The following become hidden:
- Patient names and patient pictures on appointment cards on the Status Tracker tab of the routing panel.
- Patient names on appointments on the Schedule Peek tab of the routing panel.

Tips:

To temporarily show patient names while the Hide patient names setting is on, clicktap and hold one of the Show icons or press and hold F4 on your keyboard.
The Show icons are available only while the Hide patient names setting is on, and they display in the following areas of Ascend Academic: the Calendar toolbar; the routing panel, with the Status Tracker or Schedule Peek tab selected; and the Notifications title bar.
