Q. I switched from Days to Hours on the Boarding schedule and I saw a notification that the Date Range has been constrained. What happened?
A. The following alert displays if you try to display too much information in boarding: "Sorry, the date range has been constrained because the view is too complex." The issue is that boarding is attempting to display too much data. For example, if the date range is 365 days and you switch from Days to Hourly boarding view, then boarding would need to display every hour in every day for an entire year for each cage. This is simply too much data, so the scheduler reduces the number of days it will display. An advanced setting determines when this alert is displayed. The default value is to display the message when DVMAX attempts to draw a boarding grid with more than 30000 cells. To make changes to the Advanced Settings that apply to these aspects of Boarding, contact DVMAX Technical Support.
Tips for Scheduler and Boarding Optimal Performance
...
5. DVMAX recommends that you consider using a different browser for the Scheduler/Boarding functionality than your computer system’s default browser. This is particularly useful for optimal performance if you do a lot of work on the internet at the clinic, as you will find it more convenient and find your system runs faster if you choose a different browser for the Scheduler/Boarding functionality than your computer system’s default browser. To select a browser for Scheduler/Boarding to use, first determine your what your computer’s default browser is. Then, from the DVMAX splash screen, go to File -> Preferences -> Assorted Prefs -> Appointment Scheduler/Boarding and select a browser that is different than the system default. If you only have one browser available on your system, you may need to download another browser. DVMAX recommends Safari, Firefox or Chrome.
