Guides - Create multi calendar booking

Like all other services, multi calendar booking services must be created before they can be booked by customers. In addition to creating the service itself, the same number of calendars must be created, in which the multi calendar booking can be booked. The service itself can be created on the service overview that can be accessed under the menu item ‘Settings' -> ‘Services'.

At the bottom 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 new multi calendar booking, you need to enter the name of the service. This could be e.g. ‘Couples massage' or ‘Couples treatment'. Please note that the name you write here is the name that the customer can see, when (s)he books the service. You then need to choose what type of service you want to create, in this case multi calendar booking. You then need to enter the price of the service and the duration of the service, book time. It is very important that you choose the correct time, as it is here you tell the system how long to book when the service is booked. Under ‘The customer sees' you have the option of determining what duration the customer should see when (s)he wants to book the service.

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 is a multi calendar booking, 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 very important that you remember to change the settings of the multi calendar booking so that they match the desired. For instance, the multi calendar booking is by default created as consisting of two spots. The settings of the service are changed by pressing ‘Edit' under the column ‘Settings' opposite the multi calendar booking (See Settings for more information).

Once the service has been created, you now have to create calendars where the service can be booked. Be sure to set the calendar's working hours. The working hours are the time when the multi calendar booking can be booked. 

Remember to activate the multi calendar booking in the relevant calendars. This is done under the calendars settings.

The service is activated by choosing the box 'Active?'. Remember to click 'Update'. The multi calendar booking is now active, and is automatically booked in this calendar.
