Modifying an Appointment Service
- At the top of any Pike13 page, click Settings, then Services.
- Select the Appointment Service to edit.
- Use the tabs to modify specific settings by clicking the corresponding Edit button:
- Staff Availability
- Click a staff member's name to add dates and times they are available to be booked for this service. You may set available or unavailable hours for each person on a single or recurring basis.
- For staff members with availability set, click Change to make necessary modifications to existing schedules.
- Details
- Appointment name is the name displayed on the schedule.
- Appointment length is the default duration for a new appointment, but each one can be customized by Staff. Clients scheduling their own appointments will only be able to book the default duration.
- Changing the length will only affect new bookings. Existing appointments on the calendar remain unchanged.
- Capacity is only 1 when Clients book appointments, however Staff can add more clients from the Roster.
- Single-visit price is the amount a client would pay if they only want to attend one session without a plan or pass. This is typically a slightly higher rate per appointment than if a client purchases a plan or pass. Set the price, applicable taxes, price variability between staff members, revenue category and choose if clients, members or staff may sell/purchase these.
- Price changes do not affect past visits marked Complete.
- Applicable plans and passes can be configured so that only certain plans or passes may be used for this service. This is commonly used to restrict access to premium services to paying members.
- Service category can be used to filter services by website visitors/clients or in the Pike13 Client App.
- Applicable rooms can be used in the Schedule or to filter services by website visitors/clients. These are also used to restrict where the appointment may be offered.
- Registration
- Online registration allows control over what type of customer can enroll themselves online.
- Enrollment window for registering online restricts the amount of time before the appointment start time when a client may enroll.
- Enrollment requirements may be:
- No requirements: the most flexible option for clients
- Require credit card: this will not charge the client upfront, but their payment method will be stored so your business may charge them accordingly if they do not have a plan or pass to pay for the service
- Require an applicable plan or pass: the most restrictive option, but it ensures the client pays for the service before they enroll
- Client recurring enrollments allows clients to enroll themselves on a recurring basis.
- Special instructions are emailed to a client after they enroll in the service. These are not displayed on the website.
- Reminders allows sending an automated reminder to enrolled clients 24, 48 or 72 hours before the service starts.
- Single-visit pass expiration notifies staff and clients if their single-visit pass is about to expire.
- Cancellation
- Deadline for free cancellation allows clients to cancel their own enrollment without a financial penalty. If they cancel too close to the service start time, there may be a cancellation fee charged to their account.
- Cancellation fee can be a separate fee charged to the client, or a visit can be deducted from their plan or pass used to enroll in the service.
- Cancellation policy is the text a client will see when trying to cancel their enrollment. This can be auto-generated by Pike13 or customized to meet business needs.
- Make-up policy allows issuing make-up passes for clients who miss their appointment. Staff may issue these or clients may issue a make-up pass to themselves when going through the cancellation workflow.
- Contact staff to cancel enrollment removes the ability for clients to cancel their own enrollments.
