Orders management

Orders list
The Orders screen lists all appointments in the system. It has several filters to help manage a large list.
When a user submits a booking request via the OS Services Booking component's entry screen, an Order Request is created. This screen shows all requests. The term 'request' is a holdover from the programs early days.
