Calendar
The heart of the panel, every booking of the day, per staff member, on one screen.
What you see here
The calendar displays the day's bookings in columns, one column per staff member, with their name and role at the top of the column. Times run vertically, from 06:00 to 24:00, divided into 15-minute slots. Hatched (grey, striped) areas are outside the staff member's working hours, while white areas are the intervals when they can take clients. A horizontal red line shows the current time. Each booking is a colored box depending on its status: teal for confirmed, orange for pending, grey for cancelled, and yellow for a blocked interval. There may also be a red column with unassigned bookings, those without a staff member set, or whose staff member was deleted.
At the top is the toolbar: the "Today" button takes you back to the current day, the arrows on the left/right move to the previous or next day, and tapping the displayed date opens a calendar you can use to jump straight to any day. The "Refresh" button reloads the bookings (it also reloads automatically when you return to the panel after a break), and "+ Booking" opens the new booking form.
How to add a booking
- Tap directly on a free slot in the staff member's column, the form opens with the staff member and time already filled in, or tap "+ Booking" in the top right.
- Fill in the client's name and, optionally, the phone number (07xx xxx xxx). For a walk-in client, simply write the name and number here.
- Choose the staff member and the service. The price and duration are filled in automatically and use the staff member's own values, if they have a custom price or duration set for that service.
- Check the date, time and, if needed, adjust the duration (in minutes). The "Amount due" box shows the total, with the promotion discount struck through if applicable.
- Tap "Save". The booking appears immediately on the grid.
If a required field is missing, it's highlighted in red and a message appears in the form, fill it in and save again. The "Save" button is protected against double-tapping, so you don't accidentally create two identical bookings.
How to move, edit or cancel a booking
Tap a booking to open its details. From there you can change the client, service, staff member, date or time and tap "Save"again. To move it quickly, drag the box onto another slot or column, it repositions itself in place, on the new staff member and at the new time. To stop it, use "Cancel booking" (it stays visible on the grid, in grey, as history) or "Delete booking" (it disappears completely); both ask for confirmation first.
A staff member's weekly view
Tap a staff member's name at the top of the column to switch from the current day to their entire week (Monday - Sunday), with today highlighted. In this mode, the arrows navigate from week to week, and the hatched areas show the staff member's schedule for each day. Tap the back arrow (or the "All staff"button) to return to the day view with all columns.
Sending the confirmation SMS and calling
When you open a booking that has a phone number filled in, two buttons appear next to the phone field: a green one that calls the client directly and one teal that sends them a confirmation SMS. The SMS can only be sent after the booking has been saved and uses up one SMS credit from the salon's account; if you try to send it on a booking that hasn't been saved yet, you're told to save it first.
