FAQs

    • You can remove a client from an appointment either while creating an appointment or after it has been scheduled. To do this, click Actions under the client’s name in the left panel and select Remove client. The appointment will then be marked as a Walk-in. However, clients who booked online, confirmed their booking with a card, or paid a deposit cannot be removed from the appointment.

      You can print a detailed list of your appointments from the Sales section in the main menu on the left. Select Appointments, set the date range using the filters, and click Export. You can then download your data in PDF, Excel, or CSV format for printing. If you only need bookings for a specific date, you can take a screenshot of your calendar in the preferred view and print it.

      If an appointment has already been checked out and completed, the client has received the service and made the payment, locking the appointment details from further changes. This means you cannot  edit the appointment.

      Yes, you can prevent clients from updating or cancelling their own appointments by setting a cancellation and rescheduling deadline in your online booking settings to restrict clients from making changes after a specified time.

      To schedule an appointment in your calendar, at least one service will need to be added. For consultations we suggest creating a dedicated “Consultation” service and adding this to appointments when required.

      Appointment notes are private and only visible to you and your team. They’re specific to each appointment and cannot be seen by clients.

      No, changing an appointment's duration will keep its original price.

      Yes, if the appointment was created as a repeat appointment, you can update the entire series in one go. When making any changes to any appointment in the series, you'll be given the option to apply the changes to just that appointment or all future appointments.

      Yes, you can. Go to your Appointments list and use the search bar to filter by the client’s name or appointment reference. You can also apply filters to narrow down the date range. Once you’ve found the appointments you need, click the Export button in the top right and choose your preferred format from PDF, CSV, or Excel.
