Staff, working hours and time off
Add the people who do the work, choose their services and working hours, and record holidays and other time off so that nobody can book them then.
When you would use it
Use it when someone joins, when hours change, and whenever someone is away.
How to set it up
- Open Practitioners and add a person, with their Name, Display title, Photo and Bio.
- On Services & pricing, add the services they do with Add service.
- On Working hours, use Add hours. With no hours added, the person follows the location's opening hours. Once you add any, a day without hours is their day off.
- If they work at another location on a particular date, add it under Working locations.
- To let them sign in and see their own appointments, select Invite to sign in. They see My schedule only, and can add it to their phone's calendar.
- Record holidays and sickness under Time off. Staff can also use Request time off. Requests are approved automatically unless you choose types that need your approval under Staff time-off requests.
- Practitioner calendar shows everyone's month at a glance.
What your customers see
Customers see each person's photo, title and bio, and can choose someone or anyone available. A person is offered only for their own services, and only when they are working. The reason for time off is never shown.
Examples from different trades
- Personal trainerGive each trainer at the gym their own hours, so customers only see times when that trainer is on the floor.
- BarberAdd a date under working locations when a barber covers Saturday at your second shop.
- TutorInvite each tutor to sign in, so they can see their own lessons and request time off for exams.
