How to set schedule for location

You can set individual schedule for the provider and then relate provider to the location. Thus working hours of the provider related to location will automatically apply to location.

1. To set individual schedule for provider go to Settings//Service providers//Working hours, or to Manage//Service Providers//Service providers schedule and you can set opening hours, break times, and special days for this specific employees. Just take care that opening hours of employees must be within opening hours of company.
2. To relate provider and location go to Manage//Service Providers//Service provider's locations and check the boxes with location(s) provider should be related to.



How can I relate service to location

Locations can be related only to service providers, thus if you need to relate service to the particular location, you need initially to relate this service to the service provider:

1. In Manage//Service Providers//Services, attached to this service provider check the boxes with services related to this provider.
2. In Manage//Service Providers//Service provider's locations and check the boxes with location(s) provider should be related to.
