Services Management

Services are one of the most important entities of the system and they are required to receive online appointments from your website. Services are the tasks that the employees of your company can perform, such as Haircuts, Cleanings, Massages and so on.

  • Prices and Duration: services can have different costs and durations depending on the employee that is going to be booked. The price of a service is the base cost (tax included) that the customers will have to pay either online or upon arrival by cash. Services without costs won't trigger the selection of a payment gateway as nothing have to be paid. The duration, instead, is the time (in minutes) needed for the completion of the service.
  • Capacity: services can receive by default only one person at the same date and time, like a meeting or a consultation or a visit. In case one or more services can host multiple people at the same date and time (such as yoga courses), you can increase the maximum capacity of people allowed (per appointment) for these services. The availability of a service also depends on the total number of employees that are able to offer/perform it. In case a service is assigned to 5 employees, customers will be able to book up to 5 times for the same date and time.
  • Recurrence: the recurrence can be used to quickly book several appointments at once. Before adding the appointment into the cart, it is possible to choose, for example, to repeat the appointment every Monday for the next 2 months. In these cases the system will store a different reservation for each date and time.

  • Assignments: in order to be booked, sa service has to be assigned at least to one employee, even if your service doesn't need a real person/object to perform it. In these cases the employee selection in the front-end will be skipped. During the booking process it is also possible to allow the customers to choose additional options to improve the service experience or to purchase extra items.

Employees Management

Employees are required to define their working days-table in order to setup an availability calendar for the services. An employee can represent a person, an object, a room or anything else that can be scheduled to receive online appointments.

  • Working Days: setup all the available days of work for your employees. With this feature you can define the weekly working times, the special days working times as well as the closing days. Working Days can be divided into different shifts, so that your employees can have one or more breaks during their working days.

  • Locations: each employee can work on different locations and through this feature you can specify the addresses and the coordinates (to be displayed in google maps). The locations can be also assigned to certain working days, meaning that employees can work at one location on some days and at other locations on other days.
  • Front-End Area: the employees can log in to an apposite management area in the front-end to manage their profile, services, payments, working days, locations, subscriptions and so on. All the actions an employee can perform are defined in the Configuration page of the employees in the back-end.

Notifications and Synchronization

Every time a new order/appointment is placed by the customers, the system will notify the customers themselves, the employee(s) and the administrator(s) in some different ways: E-mail, SMS, ICS Sync.

  • E-Mail: you can have the system automatically sends a confirmation/notification e-mail with the summary of the order to the customers, employee(s) and administrator(s) every time a new appointment is placed. It is also possible to configure when someone should receive the e-mail, either "ALWAYS" for the administrators or only when "the status is CONFIRMED" for the employees and customers. E-mail messages can also contain additional files like the CSV and/or the ICS of the order as attachments.
  • SMS: the system can send automatically a notification via SMS to the customers and/or to the employees and/or to the administrators every time a new order is set to CONFIRMED. The content of the sms can be easily customized from the backend in multiple languages for single and multiple orders. Additional fees should be considered according to the gateway provider you will be using, like 0.04 € per sms.
  • ICS Sync: employees and administrators can use VikAppointments to auto-sync the CONFIRMED appointments on their Online Calendar systems, such as Apple iCal, Google, Outlook and so on. The synchronization is made through different private URLs.
