Bookings — managing all appointments
The Bookings page is a searchable, filterable list of every appointment. Learn how to create, edit, approve, and action bookings.
The Bookings page is the main list view for all appointments. Unlike the Calendar which shows a time-grid view, the Bookings list is designed for bulk management, searching, and taking action on multiple bookings at once.
Tabs
The Bookings page has three tabs:
- All Bookings — every appointment across all statuses.
- Pending — bookings that have been made online but are awaiting your manual approval (only appears if you have enabled approval-required bookings in Settings → Booking).
- Packs — a sub-section for managing reusable service pack templates (separate from customer-owned packs).
Filters and search
At the top of the Bookings list, use the filter bar to narrow down results by:
- Date range — show bookings within a specific period
- Status — confirmed, pending, cancelled, no-show, completed
- Staff — filter to one team member's bookings
- Service — show all bookings for a specific service
- Search — find a booking by customer name, phone, or booking reference
Creating a new booking
Click the + New Booking button. Select the customer (or type a name to search, or add a new customer on the fly), choose the service and staff member, pick a date and time, and add any notes. Click Confirm to save.
Editing a booking
Click any booking row to open the detail panel. Click Edit to change the time, service, staff assignment, or notes. When editing, a checkbox labelled Notify customer of these changes is checked by default — uncheck it if you do not want the customer to receive an update SMS/email.
Approving pending bookings
On the Pending tab, each booking has Approve and Reject buttons. Approve sends the customer a confirmation message. Reject prompts you to enter a reason, which is included in the notification to the customer.
Marking outcomes
After a booking time has passed, use the status buttons to record what happened:
- Complete — client was served.
- No-show — client did not arrive.
- Cancel — booking was cancelled after confirmation.
These statuses affect your Reports and customer visit history.
