How to Edit the Starting the Session Number of an Episode
When you open a new episode for a client, you can edit the starting session number, so that the appointment count for that episode starts at a number other than ‘1’. If you do not choose to edit the starting session number, the first appointment will be numbered ‘1’, and the count will continue from there.
The starting session number is a useful tool for keeping track of how many appointments a client has attended in an episode. You can read more about it here.
