Mastering Period (in Days)
This field determines the number of days in the future that recurring visits will be shown on clients' calendars.
This has to do with how AlayaCare creates visits in the schedule. For performance reasons, not all the visits until the end of a recurrence will necessarily be created immediately. For example, if a recurrence is scheduled to run for the following year, but the mastering period is set at 60 days, visits for the recurrence will only be created for the first 60 days when the recurrence is first saved.
Subsequent visits are projected periodically according to the length of the mastering period every week (early Saturday morning in most regions). For example, if a recurrence is scheduled for the following year and the mastering period is set at 60 days, visits will be created for the first 60 days when the recurrence is set. Every Saturday morning that follows, new visits will be added to the calendar up to 60 days in the future.
