Popular: Run a consultation Register a client Take a payment Make a booking Receive stock

Getting started Getting started Sign in, find your way around the home screen, and learn the handful of patterns that every other screen in FastVet reuses. Clients & patients Clients & patients Register clients, add their animals, keep contact details current, and find any record again in seconds. Appointments & queues Appointments & bookings Work the appointment book: make, move and cancel bookings, and turn an arriving appointment into a waiting patient. Appointments & queues Queues The live picture of who is waiting — for a vet, for payment, for a groom, or for a call back. Clinical care Consultations The heart of FastVet: examine the patient, record what you found, charge what you used, and finish the visit into an invoice. Clinical care Clinical history Everything ever recorded about a patient on one screen — visits, notes, lab results, medication, vitals, weight trends and attached files — searchable,… Clinical care Lab results Order laboratory work, track what is outstanding, and read results against the patient they belong to. Clinical care Voice notes & AI summaries Dictate a consultation and have the notes written up for you, and read a one-glance summary of the patient's last visits. Hospital & boarding Hospital admissions Admit an in-patient, run a daily record of treatments and observations, and discharge them onto one invoice. Hospital & boarding Boarding Check animals into boarding, keep a daily record of their stay, move them between runs, and check them out onto an invoice. Grooming Grooming Run the grooming side of the practice: a queue of its own, a record of what was done, and an invoice at the end. Money Counter sales Selling food, parasite control and accessories over the counter, to somebody standing in front of you. Money The online shop Orders your clients place and pay for online, and the dispatch queue where you pick them, hand them over and mark them gone. Money Accounts & payments Take payments, read a client's account, issue statements, and correct charges that were wrong. Money Loyalty programme Reward regular clients with points earned on what they spend, and redeem those points against future bills. Stock & pricing Prices & the catalogue Maintain the catalogue everything is charged from: items, categories, price groups and VAT. Stock & pricing Stock & inventory Receive deliveries, keep counts honest, track lot numbers and expiry dates, and see where stock went. Stock & pricing Protocols Bundle the items that always go together — a spay, a dental, a vaccination — into one line the vet charges in a single tap, either at a fixed package… Stock & pricing Price groups Staff rates, senior discounts, rescue rates — a named alternative mark-up that whoever is charging can pick, on any item, anywhere in FastVet. Stock & pricing Controlled drugs Schedule numbers, batch tracking and expiry warnings — how a controlled drug moves from delivery to patient, and how the register assembles itself from… Communication Reminders & letters Bring clients back when they are due, and send letters and emails that look like they came from your practice. Communication Templates & letterheads The letterheads on every invoice, statement, reminder, referral and letter your practice sends — how to edit them, what the #CODES# do, how to preview one… Reports Reports Every report FastVet has: what question each one answers, where its numbers come from, when to run it, and which of them your accountant can have as a… Setup & administration Practice settings Your practice's details, branding, which modules are switched on, billing, and how FastVet emails your clients. Setup & administration Staff & roles Add colleagues, give them the right access, and remove them cleanly when they leave. Client portal The client portal What your clients see when they sign in: their animals, their appointments, their account and their visit history.
