Limit Days Services Can Be Booked
M
My Loan Johnson
Certain services offered at salons are not ideal for other clients or staff members, so as the salon owner, I dedicate one day a week to the stylists who would like to offer certain services, ie. perms (the smell) and/or brazilian blowouts/keratin treatments (toxic fumes). We currently have a note in the online booking system to tell clients that the service(s) can only be booked on Monday. However, most clients don't see that note so they end up booking on other days because phorest just shows all the available dates and times rather than just the Monday available slots. Would be

For example we have some employees who are assistants on certain days and open up one day a week for clients while they build their clientele

Block times out of the diary for certain treatments

We have one room and we rely on scheduling to offer private use treatments such as waxing and facials, massage, tanning. During times where multiple therapists are using the space we would like to block these treatments out. Currently we have had to create two profiles for each therapist. This confuses the clients at booking too

Use room Ressource feature to bind a room to a Service. To keep your physical room from overbooking.

Simon Li going to try this now thank you. So I would create a room called “private space” then link Massage, facials and waxing to this? I am still not sure we would be able to set times that we can offer those services though?

zEmma Lockett-Smith unfortunately you can only set certain times and days, if you put a service into the special offers. This is the only way to get full control over offered slots for online bookings.
It would be extremely helpful if Phorest Admin would integrate these features natively to the services.

Simon Lithank you Simon. That’s what I thought and I agree it really needs to happen.

Hi there, it would be great to be able to make particular services available/unavailable for specific dates, rather than having to turn off their availability altogether

Booking restrictions for services

It'd be good to be able to add certain restrictions to services such as:
- Certain days of the week only
- Between specific times only
- Existing or approved clients only
Some of our services can only booked after a face-to-face consultation, however we've had to take them down to avoid them being booked by clients that have not had one.
For marketing purposes it'd be good if they were still visible, but only bookable if the client has a consultation in their appointment history.
And also to restrict when the service is bookable, for example Mon-Wed 10am-1pm only.

make only certain appointments available on certain days

the crm I used previously would allow me to set the booking slots on that day to certain appointments - for example I could have days where I would only see new patients and I was able to turn off everything else, or in the run up to christmas I could turn off any dermal filler appointments after a certain point so they would not be bookable in the week before christmas or the day before I go on annual leave

Can we make it so online booking is only available for certain stylists on certain days? We have some junior stylist that only take clients certain days of the week and this would be very helpful

Is it possible that when making service available online it can only be booked on certain days. Want to put in kids haircuts but only from Monday to Wednesday

Time and Day rules Special offers
S
Simon Li
Please give an option to disable the extra category for Special offers inside the online booking mask and app.
We would like to use the special offer rules to restrict the availability of services to certain times of and amount of services.
Since for whatever reason we aren't able to set limitations inside the regular services configuration...
Alternatively just give us the same options to set times and days just like with special offers for the regular services.
If ask why?
1.We hate gaps.
Using the rules to force clients to only be able to book certain times with certain services, would offload a lot of calling people to move their selfbooked appointments to close gaps they gave caused.
- We try to protect our employees.
By limiting services to a certain time of day or time slots, we can prevent to get like 8 haircut appointments in a row.
We don't want anybody to grind through clients all day.
I beg you just to copy the rules function to the normal service or give us the option to show special offers inside the regular service categorys.
