Advance Booking Settings
Step 1: Complete Your Basic Booking
Before setting up advanced options like employees and services, make sure you've finished creating your Basic Booking.
β This ensures your event is properly configured with time slots and availability before adding advanced features.
Step 2: Add Employees
Navigate to the 'Employees' section in your dashboard, then click 'Add Employee.'
Fill in the employee's name and contact details. Then, set up their weekly schedule β this defines the available dates and time slots that customers can book for that specific employee.
These time slots will automatically appear on your booking page when customers select this employee.
Employee Information (Required): Fill in the employee's name (required), and optionally add their contact details like email and phone number.
π‘ You can also upload a photo or avatar to help customers identify the employee visually.
Weekly Schedule (Required): Select which days the employee works, and configure their available time slots for each day.
You can set up to 2 time slots per day β for example: β’ Morning shift: 9 AM - 12 PM β’ Afternoon shift: 2 PM - 6 PM
This determines exactly when customers can book appointments with this specific employee.
Active Status (Optional): Use the toggle to mark the employee as Active or Inactive.
β Active employees appear in booking options and are visible to customers. β Inactive employees are hidden from customers, but their data remains safely stored in the system.
Step 3: Add Services
Navigate to the 'Services' section in your dashboard, then click 'Add Service.'
β¨ This is where you'll define what services customers can book and their pricing.
Step 4: Set Up Service Details
For each service you create, enter the following information:
β’ Service Name and Description β What customers will see β’ Service Duration and Price β How long it takes and the cost β’ Currency β Choose your business currency (USD, CAD, EUR, etc.)
π‘ Pro Tip: If your service duration matches your event time slot (e.g., both are 30 minutes), set them to be the same for simpler scheduling and automatic time slot generation.
Settings Guide
Step 1: Understanding Employee Count Settings
The Employee Count feature controls how many customers can book the same time slot simultaneously.
π This powerful setting helps you : β’ Prevent overbooking β’ Manage your business capacity β’ Control peak hour availability
π‘ When individual employees are configured, their personal schedules take precedence over default settings, giving you maximum flexibility.
Step 2: Setting Default Employee Count
In your booking event settings, locate the 'Default Employee Count' field.
This number represents how many parallel bookings are allowed at the same time slot.
Example: If you set it to 3, up to 3 customers can book the 2:00 PM time slot.
β οΈ Note: This setting only applies when no individual employees are configured. Once you add employees, their individual schedules control availability.
Default Employee Count (Required): The number of simultaneous bookings allowed per time slot.
Common configurations: β’ 1 β Exclusive one-on-one bookings (appointments, consultations) β’ 3-5 β Multiple staff available (services, treatments) β’ 10+ β Group services or classes
When It Applies (Required): This setting is active when the 'Employee Booking' feature is disabled.
β If Employee Booking is OFF β Default count controls availability β If Employee Booking is ON β Each employee's schedule becomes the controlling factor
Impact on Availability (Required): The system tracks bookings in real-time.
As soon as the booking count reaches your limit, that time slot automatically becomes unavailable.
π This prevents double-booking and helps manage your workload efficiently.
Step 3: Using Override Settings
Override Settings give you the flexibility to adjust capacity for specific dates.
π Common Use Cases: β’ Holidays β more staff available β’ Special events β increased capacity β’ Slow periods β reduced staffing
Navigate to 'Override Settings' β Select the date β Enter your custom employee count.
This only affects the selected dates, leaving your default settings unchanged for other days.
Date Selection (Required): Choose the specific date(s) when you want different capacity than your default.
β¨ You can: β’ Select individual dates (e.g., December 25) β’ Choose date ranges (e.g., Dec 24-26) β’ Set recurring patterns if needed
Override Count (Required): Enter how many employees should be available on the selected date(s).
π This overrides your default setting ONLY for those specific dates.
Priority (Optional): Override settings always take priority!
π― Hierarchy: 1. Override setting β Applied first 2. Default count β Used if no override 3. Employee schedules β If employees configured
This ensures your special dates always get the right capacity.
Step 4: How the System Applies These Settings
The booking system follows this logic to determine availability:
Step 1: Check if there's an override for the specific date Step 2: If yes β use the override count Step 3: If no β use the default employee count Step 4: If employees are configured β use individual employee schedules
This tiered approach ensures maximum flexibility while preventing double-bookings and managing your capacity efficiently. The system always prioritizes the most specific setting available.
Custom Form Management
Step 1: Create a New Form
Navigate to the 'Custom Forms' section in your dashboard and click 'Add Custom Form' to begin.
π Custom forms let you collect specific information from customers beyond basic booking details.
β¨ Perfect for intake forms, consultation requests, or special service inquiries.
Step 2: Set Up Your Form Details
Define what information you want to collect from your customers.
π Configure these sections: β’ Form Name & Description β’ Display Settings (optional) β’ Custom Fields & Questions
π‘ Pro tip: Keep questions concise and relevant to improve completion rates.
π Form Information (Required): Enter your Form Name and Description.
π These will appear prominently on your form page, so make them clear and inviting to customers.
