Guides - Create service with a customer-determined time

Like all other services, services with a customer-determined time must be created before they can be booked by customers. The service can be created in on the service overview that can be accessed under the menu 'Setting' > 'Services'. 

At the top of the page you can create new services. If you have created multiple customer groups, you must choose which customer group you want to create the service in. This is done by choosing the desired customer group opposite ‘Show services for customer group'.

In order to create a service with a customer-determine time, you need to enter:

the name of the service, e.g. ‘Meeting room'. Please note that the name you write here is the name that the customer can see, when (s)he books the service. 

what type of service you want to create, in this case customer-determined time.

The price of the service should then be entered

No duration should be entered as the service does not have a predetermined duration.

Finally, you need to choose whether the service should be offered on all calendars or whether you want to add the service manually on the calendar that should offer the service. When the service represents e.g. a room, it is recommended that you always choose to add the service manually, as the service normally should be offered on one calendar only (See below).

When you have entered the desired information, the service is created by pressing 'Create service'. The service has now been created! However, it is important that you remember to change the settings of the service so that they match the desired. The settings of the service are changed by pressing ‘Edit' under the column ‘Settings' opposite the service (See Settings for more information).

In addition to creating the service itself, it must be linked to a calendar in which it can be booked. As a rule, it is recommended that a new calendar is created for this purpose, e.g. for the service ‘Meeting room' a calendar named ‘Meeting room' could be created. This should be done in order to avoid errors.
