💡 Helpful Tips:
Service Times
The additional tab is created if you want to add more time to a client's service/appointment. You can also add a note in the Notes section for any other information that might be necessary.
Daily Notes: These notes will only appear when you are booking an appointment for that particular client only for that day
Appt Notes: These notes will only appear for this appointment only for this client only.
Notes entered into the Daily Note or Appt Note section will appear on your Appointment Calendar Tool Tips (when you hover over the appointment). These notes will not save to your Client's next appointment.
Booking Source: You can also view your Client's Booking Source (API, Google, Online Booking, My Dash, Envision) when you hover over the Appointment.
You can use a Booking Source as a filter on the Appointment by Client, Appointment by Employee, and Appointment by Date Range Reports.
