Service Picture:

To begin, click on the camera icon to add a picture of your service.

As it is shown in the below image, you have two options for uploading a picture of your service: either select the left file icon to choose a picture from your device, or choose the right camera icon to take a picture with your camera.

When you uploaded the picture, don't forget to press "Save".

Once you have uploaded your photo, you can modify it by clicking on the service picture to access options to delete, crop or rotate it.

  1. Service Name

  2. Service Color - The color that the appointment will appear on the calendar

  3. Category - Enter an existing one, or create a new one

  4. Duration - Duration of the appointment with the client

  5. Transition Time - Option to add an extra buffer time between the next appointment

  6. Price

4. Select the Locations this service is available for booking (online and internal). In the example below, this service is only available at the Broadway location, not the Main st. location.

If the service is de-selected in a location, it will not be as bookable on the calendar, or schedulable by providers in that location for online booking.

5. Select the Providers who offer this service. In the example below, both providers offer this service. Select or de-select those who offer the service.

If the provider is selected as not offering this service, it will not be as bookable on the calendar, or schedulable by the provider for online booking.

6. If during the service creation you miss a step, you will see a yellow ! showing that you need to go back and fix a section of the service setup

7. When finished, select Save & Complete!

Duplication:

After creating a service, you can duplicate that specific service.

Go to the service list, and click on the three dots next to the service. Select the "Duplicate" option.

A window similar to the picture below will appear, giving you the option to decide whether you want to retain the same associations for location, staff, and form for the duplicated service. Don't forget to press "Duplicate".

You have successfully duplicated the selected service in your service list, including all the relevant information such as Copy of [Service name], category, duration, transition time, price, service type, availability for online booking, and description. You can easily edit any features of the duplicated service as needed.
