make sure that you have a service item in QuickBooks that will map to the appointment type.
Once that is done, you can go to Manage Appointments from the VetBadger system menu

After you have selected the item, you will then be presented with the options for the item. Feel free to change what is required. The ones that you are most likely going to want to change are the duration which will dictate the default duration for appointments as they are scheduled and the Additional patient service charge to specify an alternate fee for additional patients in the appointment.

Once you have completed saved that, you will be able to go back and schedule an appointment with that type.
