Scheduler Grid View - Creating & Editing Existing Sessions (WebABA Legacy)

Click Scheduler from Navigation Bar and select Scheduler Grid View.

7. Add Billable - This section is used to create billable sessions for active clients that have current/active authorizations within WebABA. Remember: WebABA is auth based, which means that if an auth is not uploaded for a client, you will not be able to schedule past or future sessions for that client. To schedule a billable session(after clicking Add billable):
   
   
   a. Client- Select the appropriate client from the drop down list. (It will default to the last client you were viewing or it will ask you to select a client, you are able to switch to a different client if needed)
   b. Authorization- Select the appropriate authorization from the drop down list. (If there are multiple auths available, be sure to select the auth that is within the date range of the session you are creating)
   c. Activity- Select the activity you want to create for the session from the drop down list.
   d. Location- Select the appropriate location for the session from the drop down list. If you do not see the location you are searching for and it is a personal treatment location for the client, you are able to select the + location dropdown menu and add a new address for the client. This will add it for this session and also add it to the drop down menu to be used for future sessions as well. If you are needing to add a new address that multiple clients are seen at, DO NOT use the +. Use the Office Treatment Locations section- see this section’s instructions within the WebABA Manual.
   e. Date/Time- Select the date and start time of the session to be created. Be sure to enter 2 digits for the hour and 2 digits for the mins. This will ensure no errors when creating the session.
   f. Duration- Select the duration of the session to be scheduled from the drop down list.
   g. Provider- Select the provider you want to schedule for this session from the drop down list. The Providers in this list are team members assigned to the client. To create team members, see the Manage Teams section in the WebABA Manual. If no Providers are in the drop down menu or you don't see the Provider you are looking for, click on the magnify glass icon next to the drop down list. You also have the Check Providers Availability link- this will open a new window to search for Providers availability in a CSV report form.
   h. Status- Select a status. All sessions default to confirmed status unless manually changed.
   i. Repeat -To create multiple billable sessions for the same activity at the same time by using the repeat tool. Be sure to select either an End Date or number of occurrences. Leaving both options blank will only create the one session.
   j. Scheduling Note- This section is used to enter Schedule notes for the Provider to see on their My Schedule page as a read only.
   k. Is Non Billable- If selected the session will NOT go to billing when the provider renders the session.
   l. Is Not Payable- If Selected the session will NOT go to Payroll/ Timesheet for the scheduled Provider. ( This means that the provider will not get paid for this session)
   m. Add Billable Session- Click this button to create the session.

   g. Provider- If the orange link is selected, you will have the option to select an available Provider within the clients team or outside the team.
   h. Issues Button- If the view button appears next to the session, this means that one of the sessions rules have been broken. Select the View button to view which session rules have been broken. If an orange box appears behind the view button this means that one of the rules broken has to do with authorization.
   i. Notes- You are able to view and edit a schedule note. If a “view note” link appears this means that there is already a note there that you are able to view/edit. The add link in orange means that there is not a schedule note attached to this session. Remember: Schedule notes are for scheduling purposes only, do not add session notes to this section, as it will not appear in the correct reports for audit purposes.
