Set up your service catalog and staff roster

Get your offerings and technicians configured so a booking quotes correctly the first time.

Before you start

  • A list of the services you offer, with what you charge and how long each takes

Steps

  1. Add your staff

    Open Settings › Team & Roles and add each technician or staff member who will take bookings. Only people added here show up as assignable on the calendar.

  2. Define your offerings

    In Service › Offerings, create one entry per service you sell: a labor rate, an expected duration, and the parts it typically consumes. This is what a booking quotes from — get it right once and every future quote is instant.

  3. Set booking rules

    Service › Config controls things like how far ahead clients can book and whether double-booking a staff member is ever allowed. Set these before you open the calendar to real clients.

  4. Test with a dummy booking

    Book a test appointment against a real offering and staff member, then check Service › Calendar shows it correctly and the quoted price matches what you expect.

What you end up with

A calendar that quotes accurately the first time a client calls, because the catalog and the staff behind it are already set up correctly.
