Creating a Planning Object with Admitting Capacity

For inpatient admission planning in day-based planning, you must define an admission capacity for every day program used in the planning object of the care unit (organizational unit).

You should provide the scheduling departments with admission quotas.

Note Note

The admission quota check is also available to you in the general planning functions and can be executed for each planning process of an admission appointment. If you use the admission quota check in the planning functions, you must set the system parameter N1AACCHK. See Editing Appointments (Appointment Editor)
