Settings in this block define the global rules on working hours, breaks, and days off at the company level. These settings will serve as a template for all employees added at a later time. Note that each employee can have a personal schedule that may override the Company schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This option allows you to set company-wide working hours and breaks<\/strong>. If you want to set the same hours for every day, simply set the first day and click on the \u201cApply to All Days\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that changes in global working hours will not be applied to previously created employees since they already have a unique schedule. Instead, those changes will be applied to all new employees that you create afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Days Off setting allows you to set one or multiple days off that apply to the whole company. Click on the \u201cAdd Day Off\u201d button, enter the \u201cDay Off name\u201d, select one or a range of days, and check if you want these days to be repeated yearly. Since repeating days off and one-time days off are colored differently you can differentiate between them easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you access the Employee<\/strong> profile, you will see three tabs related to the schedule \u2013 Work Hours<\/strong>, Special Days<\/strong>, and Days Off<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Work Hours<\/strong> \u2013 This is where you set custom working hours and breaks for any employee if his working hours and breaks differ from the ones set in the company\u2019s global settings. You can choose different working hours and breaks for any day of the week. If you would like to set the same schedule for the entire week, simply configure Monday\u2019s schedule and then click the \u201cApply to All Days<\/em>\u201d button \u2013 this way the Monday schedule will be copied to all the other days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is also possible to add multiple periods during the day and set a different set of services<\/em> for each period. This way you can create a flexible service schedule for your employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the right side of each period, you will see an option for selecting the services. You can select one, two, or more services, and those selected services will be provided by your employee just in that period. So, for example, you can set the \u201cCardio training\u201d service from 10 pm to 12 pm, and the \u201cYoga class\u201d from 7 pm to 8 pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, it is possible to define multiple locations<\/strong> or separate locations<\/em> for each employee\u2019s working period as well. In the employee\u2019s details you still need to set a single default location, so, if your employee works on only one location, just define it in the \u201cDetails\u201d<\/strong> tab, and you won\u2019t have to set it in the work hours for each period \u2013 the default location will be automatically assigned to all periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, if you have one employee<\/em> working on multiple locations<\/em>, you can choose one or more locations for each time period that you create. This way, the same employee can be booked for specific services at certain hours at one location, and then provide the same or different services at a different location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you add multiple locations in the employee\u2019s Work Hours, once a location is selected when booking, all other locations will be blocked at this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note:\u00a0<\/strong>If your locations are physically separated, keep in mind that your employees will need time to get from one location to another, so it may be necessary to add buffer times for your services in order to make it possible for employees to get from one appointment to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note: After setting these options you can potentially face these two issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Days Off<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Similarly with working hours and breaks, you can set custom days off for every employee. Click on the \u201cAdd Day Off<\/em>\u201d button and you\u2019ll see several new options. Enter the day off\u2019s\u00a0name<\/em>, a\u00a0date,<\/em>\u00a0or a\u00a0range of dates,<\/em>\u00a0and specify whether you want this day off to repeat yearly. After you click \u201cAdd Day Off<\/em>\u201c, your Day Off will be saved. Depending on whether it is a repeating one or a one-time day off, it will be colored in orange or red on the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Settings in this block define the global rules on working hours, breaks, and days off at the company level.

Once you configure it, it will override the employee\u2019s general working hours and his service schedule, but it will not override his days off.
Click on the \u201cAdd Special Day\u201d<\/strong> button and the configuration section will appear. In the \u201cDate\u201d<\/strong> option choose a date or a range of dates, then set one or multiple periods of time with working hours, choose one or multiple services for each of them in the \u201cService\u201d<\/strong> option, and select a specific location in the \u201cLocation\u201d<\/strong> option, according to what\u2019s the special day\u2019s setup. After you configure the special schedule, click on the \u201cSave Special Day\u201d<\/strong> button and this schedule will be applied.
If you have services that are only provided from time to time (not on a daily or a weekly basis, but on specific occasions), this feature is a perfect match to configure such services. You can simply delete the working hours for an employee and just use the special days, so the calendar on the front-end will show the first available appointment slot. This is useful, especially for services that happen from time to time. The customers won\u2019t need to search for a date. Instead, the month with the available date will be shown right away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
