Add a Patient to the Waitlist via Dentally
Follow your usual steps in Dentally
Adding a patient to the TurnUp waitlist via Dentally is easy — just follow your normal actions inside Dentally.
✅ How does it work?
When a patient is added to the Dentally waitlist, TurnUp will pick it up during the hourly sync.
- Search for the patient via the search bar or via the calendar view
- Go to the “Appointments” tab and click ‘+ Waiting List’

- Choose the correct waiting list (based on the patient’s issue) and save

- The patient is now added and will appear at the bottom of the list

⏱️ Note: this sync is not instant, it runs every 15 minutes.
If no matching appointment is found:
-
The patient is added without a linked agenda. This means that the patient can be invited to last-minute appointments of any practicioner.
-
The patient is added without a linked appointment
🔄 Sync from TurnUp to Dentally
If a patient is added in TurnUp and the Dentally sync is active:
-
The sync is instant
-
The patient will appear in Dentally under the right treatment list

IMPORTANT: The patiënt has to exist in Dentally for this to work!
🔁 Changes in Dentally
