From the salon floor

The Monday morning that
stopped starting on paper.

Recurring bookings alone saved my front-desk an hour every Monday. Conflict detection has caught at least two would-be double-bookings a week since we switched.

Questions

Questions, before you redraw the schedule.

Can I see all my staff side-by-side on the calendar?

Yes. The staff-column view shows each groomer in their own lane with all their bookings, blocks, and gaps visible at once. Switch from day or week view with one click.

How do I create recurring appointments for a regular customer?

Use the recurring booking wizard. Pick the pet, service, staff, starting date, cadence (every N weeks), and number of occurrences. The system generates the full schedule, flags any conflicts, and creates all bookings in one transaction.

Can I block time for things that aren't customer bookings?

Yes. Block time supports recurring blocks (every Monday 9–10 AM team meeting) and one-off blocks (Tuesday all-day deep clean). Blocks can be salon-wide or per-staff, and the public booking page respects them automatically.

What if a booking conflicts with an existing one?

The system checks for staff double-bookings, customer overlaps, outside-hours, and closed-day conflicts the moment you try to create or reschedule a booking. Conflicts are surfaced before commit, with the conflicting booking highlighted and the recommended fix offered.

Can I require approval before bookings are confirmed?

Yes. Configure approval mode at the org level — auto-confirm everything, require manual review for all new bookings, or hybrid (only new customers need approval). Pending bookings appear in a dedicated dashboard for one-click approve / reject.

What happens when I reassign a booking to a different staff member?

The new staff member's availability is checked, the booking is moved, the customer is auto-notified on their preferred channel (SMS, WhatsApp, or email), and the change is logged on the booking timeline for audit purposes.
