#### **Recommended Method: Using a Text Display (Header or Subheader)**
1. ##### **Create a New Appointment Field:**
- Navigate to **Settings / Appointment Fields**.
- Add a new field that contains the full text of your consent form.
- Set the Type to Header or Subheader to display the text without requiring a response.
2. ##### **Customize the Button Text:**
- Go to **Settings / CUI Messages**.
- Modify the "Make appointment / Create" button text to something like "Accept and Make Appt."
**Example**:
- “By clicking 'Accept and Make Appointment' I am agreeing to all district policies for the loan of this Chromebook.”
- Follow this with a list of your policies or terms.
This method is great for providing clear consent language without requiring user interaction beyond the appointment confirmation.
