Building ASP.NET+AJAX Appointment Manager

Suppose that you need to create an appointment manager for your business. You have a receptionist in the front office and salesmen ready to service customers. Whenever a customer comes in requesting a consultation, the receptionist will make an appointment in the Appointment Manager. The next automatically assigned salesman will be rotated by the application. If a customer requests a specific salesman, then that appointment will not affect the rotation process.

When a new appointment is created, the salesman that performed the smallest number of appointments will be assigned. The rotation process will ensure fair distribution of appointments.

We will show you how to create an ASP.NET+AJAX Appointment Manager web application generated with Code OnTime and enhanced in Visual Web Developer.
