How do you create a booking series?
Setting up series bookings is very simple: You specify the time period and the interval in which the appointments should take place.
anny automatically generates the appointments based on the times you specify. Your customers can now book all appointments of this series with one booking. You have the choice:
1) Regular courses
For regular courses, you can schedule two different courses in the same resource. The availability of the resource is taken into account. The solution is to combine the schedule of the service / booking option with the series. Tip: remember to activate Service availability in your account settings.
2) Irregular courses
For irregular courses, you can assign an irregular schedule on the resource. Your series will then access these irregular schedules. The availability settings will be applied to the service in both cases.
As a last step, you specify the period in which the appointments take place. Now you get all the desired appointments displayed directly, and you can click save in the bottom right corner.
Use-Case:
A course with 10 sessions from the beginning of September till October has been created. This series takes place regularly and can be booked by 10 people.
Cancellation of a Booking Series
There are 3 options to cancel a Booking Series:
Cancel a single appointment | Only one specific appointment in the series will be canceled without affecting the rest of the appointments. |
Cancel the current and all following appointments | Cancel a specific, and all subsequent appointments. |
Cancel the entire series | The only option where the cancellation conditions are applied. |
