Appointments (patients) per session hour
This figure represents how many patients were seen per session hour and how it is tracking against the target for the period selected. Session hour includes the time opened up in your diary (either via the session setup screen or right-click - make available). Excludes practice closures, days away and right click - make unavailable.

Appointments (patients) per booked hour
This figure represents how many patients per hour have been booked (in a diary) and how it is tracking against the target for the period selected. Booked hour includes all the patient appointment slots which are completed, billed, paid, DNA, booked & double booked.
Appointments (patients) per consulting hour
This figure shows how many patients your Practitioners consulted over the hour and how it is tracking against the target for the period selected. Consulting hour includes all the patient appointment slots which are completed, billed, paid and booked (excludes DNA & double booked appointments).
NOTE: As this report shows the number of appointments that are/would be completed in 60 minutes of "consulting", your patients per consulting hour may appear quite large if you have short appointments (5 minutes) with lots of gaps. For example, 5 minute appointments will appear as 12 appointments per consulting hour, even if you have only seen 3 x 5 min appointments in total for the day (3 appts/15 minutes = 12 appts/60 minutes.
(Your "Consulting time" for that day would be 0.25)
