Using the Appointment Selection window

The Appointment Selection window in Delivery Manager allows you to verify delivery information and launch exams. For security reasons, this window closes if there is no activity within a certain amount of time.

The following table describes some features of the Appointment Selection window:

Screen area

Description

Calendar

Controls which appointments appear in the table. The current date is automatically selected when the window opens. Click the calendar icon next to this date to open the full calendar view.

In the full calendar view, the current date is automatically highlighted. Click a date on the calendar to select it. Click the arrows to the left and right of the month or year to move to the previous month or year and to the next month or year.

Contains information about the candidate related to the currently selected table entry. This may include the candidate's full name, testing ID, and photo (if available).

Search name

Filters the table's appointments when you type a candidate's first or last name into the box.

Lists appointments and their current status for the selected calendar date.

The table includes a candidate's appointment time, name, exam title, exam language, and registration number.

Start

Exit

Use these methods to navigate and sort the table in the Appointment Selection window:

  • The table refreshes every 30 seconds with the latest appointment information. Appointments are added to or removed from the table as candidates start and finish exams. After a refresh, the chosen row remains selected so you do not accidentally start the wrong exam. If the chosen row disappears after the window refreshes, no row remains selected.

  • You can sort the content within the table in ascending or descending order by any of the columns. To do this, click the column name once or twice and an arrow pointing up (ascending) or down (descending) appears next to the column name. You can also expand the columns by clicking and dragging the right or left edge of the column name. These changes save for the next time you open Delivery Manager on the workstation.
