Extent track appointment fields with conditions (like rounds)

[roelfaber]

When a track has multiple appointment fields (e.g. at age 5/8/12/21 months) the automatic appointment filter always fills the first available appointment field. But for patients starting later (e.g. transferral at age 7 months) the first appointment(s) should be skipped. By adding conditions (in this case for age between 4 and 6 months) this first field could be invalid and the next would be filled. The conditions editor that is currently used for rounds only should work fine for this purpose.

You can already set minimum and maximum time difference. The problem is that each field is relative to the previous. A fix would be to be able to set the base value from which these minimum and maximum should be calculated. Either from the previous appointmentfield, the respondent start date or maybe a date trackfield (with birthday, treatment start date, etc.)

Would this be an appropriate fix in this use case?

This will work, but still one can't time appointments when e.g. previous appointments have been skipped. The interface is not clear in its descriptions and order. A new Out-of-the-box thinking proposal by users (maybe using a wizard-like approach) will be discussed in the next release meeting.
