Scheduling Dashboard

  2. New Scheduled Session: Schedule a new session for a future time (you choose the date and time). 

 

If you choose a New Scheduled Session, you will be prompted to select a date (image below and to the left) and time (image below and to the right):

  • Participant Name: Enter the name of the participant (minimum of 2 characters). If you have saved this person in your Contacts list or they are a user in the organization that you have permission to access, their name should appear in the autofill once you begin typing.
  • Session Invite and Reminders: Select the desired type, and a field will appear for the contact information required. Any contact information saved for this contact will pre-populate. If you would not like to enter contact information for this person, select System should not send invite.) 
  • Participant Time Zone: Choose the time zone your participant is in--this determines the time and date that will be used for their invitation and reminder e-mails or texts (this defaults to the time zone on your account). 
  • Show Participant Documents: If you have at least one active E-Document, you will see this question.
    • Select "All Documents" to show all active documents to this participant.
    • Select "No Documents" to NOT show any documents to this participant.
    • If you have created a custom packet, you can select it to show that specific group of documents to this participant.

 

4b. If a Stripe account is connected to your SecureVideo account, and you want to require a payment for this session, click on the link: "Click here to require Payment". This will expand the window so that you can select the service and set the price for the session.

  • This link might use different text if your account administrator has chosen to change it.

5. Click the Save button in the lower right-hand corner. 

 

6. If you would like to add another person, use the "Add Participant" button for this session.

The host will receive a confirmation email when the participant makes a payment, and the status on your dashboard will also change the text from "PAYMENT DUE" to "PAID IN FULL". 

  

 Note: If you choose the option "System should not send invite," you will need to remember to give the access code to the participant. (Their participant tile will have a note "E-mail/Text Not Used," to indicate no invitations have been sent to them.)

If you did not send email invitations, then communicate the 9-digit session Access Code to the invitee over the phone or by other private communication.
