The Booking Component can be used to create Appointments for certain services offered by you and accept paid or free Bookings for these Appointments.
Before adding any Appointments in the Booking component, you will need to add Staff Member details who are going to be assigned for the Appointments.
Once the Staff Members are added, you can now add Appointments which will be displayed on your app to your app users/members.
Please navigate to Business Tools -> Enable Booking -> Appointments section of your Beezer Dashboard.
To add Appointments, please click on the sign on the top right-hand-side corner as shown below:
To create an Appointment, the following details need to be added:
- Image - Header image for your appointment.
- Name - Appointment name.
- Description - Brief description of the Appointment and the service it offers.
- Duration - Total time/duration of the Appointment.
-
Capacity - The number of bookings allowed for the Appointment. For example, if you keep the capacity for your appointment at 5, then 5 users can book this appointment, after which it will not show in your app.
- Note: The capacity of an appointment is mapped per staff member added. If you have added 2 staff members for an Appointment and kept the capacity as 5, then each staff member can be booked 5 times for the same Appointment, taking the total bookings to 10 for this Appointment.
