Adding new bookings

Back to top

Add New Booking

From the Customer Profile, you can create a new booking using the Customer's previously entered information. Click the + New Booking button in the left sidebar to create a new booking. 

This opens the Customer Booking Page with a new booking started for the Customer in focus. The Staff member can then complete the booking for the Customer. Once complete, the booking is listed within the Booking section of the Customer's profile.

Editing a Customer profile

Back to top

Edit Information

Editing the Customer record is easy. Type directly into the field you need to update or change the values of the drop-down menus. Be sure to Save your changes!

 

Note

Editing the Customer Profile does not update previous bookings by that Customer. The address entered for a prior booking remains the same unless you pull up that invoice and edit it manually.

Similarly, editing a Customer's information within a booking does not update the Customer Profile automatically. Instead, Customer information changes require the Customer Profile to be updated manually.

 

Note

Adding a Staff note to a Customer Profile is not currently possible. Staff notes may, however, be added to a Customer's invoice on a per-booking basis.

 

The following article within this series looks at how to archive a Customer Profile.
