Setup and Configuration

↑ Back to top
  1. Three hairdressers must be added as Resources. Since a hairdresser can only be in one place at one time, be sure to set each resource with an Available Quantity of “1”. Notice how you can set availability rules for individual hairdressers, to (for example) give them lunch breaks.
  2. Set the global availability of the salon (opening hours) under Bookings > Global Availability. We’re layering availabilities via Priority, but you can also just add a range of hours for each day of the week.
  3. Create the Haircut Appointment as a bookable product and configure it with the following settings. Note that although we’re setting Max 1 bookings per block, the addition of the Resources (Hairdressers) means that we can have as many bookings during a given block as there are resources. Note too that we’re setting default product-level unavailability, which will be overridden by the Global Availability rules.
