Article summary
Salon hours, employee shifts and existing appointments work together to create reliable booking slots.
Availability is more than opening hours
A salon may be open, but a particular employee can be busy or unavailable. Reliable booking requires several checks.
What affects a time slot
- Salon working hours
- Weekly closed days
- Employee shift timings
- Employee service assignments
- Service duration
- Existing active bookings
A clearer customer experience
Past times should be disabled, unavailable slots should be clearly marked and available slots should remain easy to identify.
Final availability is always verified by the booking system before a booking is created.
