Key Highlights
1. This calendar enables contacts to make bookings for multiple services for themselves or combine services for multiple participants (themselves and their guests).
2. The calendar operates with a default 15-minute slot interval, which ensures efficient scheduling. While this interval is fixed, you have the flexibility to add buffer times between appointments, giving your staff the time they need to prepare for the next client.
3. Crucially, the availability of the service calendar is directly linked to the schedules of the staff members assigned to it. Hence, there is no option to configure the Calendar Availability. The calendar will consider the availability of only it's assigned staff members. If a staff member is unavailable at a given time, the calendar will reflect this unavailability.
4. If you wish to display different services on a single scheduling link (The Service Menu), it is important to first create the desired groups, then create your service calendars and assign them to the respective groups, and finally create your Service Menu.
5. Service Menus do not support meetinglocations. Any meeting locations added to Service Calendars will not be applied to Service Menus.
