Choose which services and team members can be booked online
Switch online booking on or off per service and per team member, and see why a service or team member is missing from your salon page.
Not everything has to be bookable online. A treatment you want to discuss with the client first, or a team member who only sees regulars, you keep offline. Per service and per team member you decide whether clients can choose it online. In the calendar you can always book everything.
When a service can be booked online
A service appears on a location's salon page when all of this is true:
- Online booking is on for the service.
- The service is offered at that location.
- At least one team member does the service, works at that location and can be booked online.
- The location's online profile is live.
The client only sees times when such a team member is working according to their scheduled shifts. If the service needs resources, one must also be free at the location at that time.
Online booking per service
- Go to Catalog in the menu and open Services.
- Click the service.
- Open Online booking and switch it on or off. Next to the title it says On or Off.
- Check under Team members who does the service, and under Locations where you offer it.
- Click Save.
A new service can be booked online by default. Online booking applies to all variants of the service at once. In the services list, Saloon warns you when a service is offered at no location, or when no team member at a location does it.
Online booking per team member
- Go to Settings › Team members › Team members.
- Click Actions on the team member and choose Edit.
- Open Settings and switch Allow online booking on or off.
- Check under Services which services this team member does.
- Click Save.
When online booking is off, clients cannot choose this team member, Saloon does not assign them for No preference and they do not appear in the team on your salon page. A new team member can be booked online by default.
For services you need the permission Can create or edit services in the catalog, for team members Can manage the onboarding process for providers. You set them under Settings › Team members › Permission roles.
