Booking & Scheduling
Set up recurring bookings
When a client books the same visits week after week, set them up once as a recurring schedule and Chester creates them all for you.
The short version
- Start a new booking and choose the recurring option.
- Pick the days of the week it repeats on.
- Set when it starts, and create the series.
On your phone
- On your schedule, tap Add appointment.
- Choose Recurring Appointment.
- Fill in the client, pets, and service as usual, then set the Schedule:
- Days of the Week - tap the days it repeats on (Mon, Wed, and Fri are picked to start).
- Start Date - when the series begins.
- End Date - optional. Leave it as Ongoing - no end date to repeat indefinitely.
- Tap Create recurring schedule.
On the web
- On your schedule, click New Booking.
- Fill in the client, pets, and service, then check Make recurring.
- Set Repeat on (the weekdays) and an End date.
- Click Create Series.
Good to know
- Recurrence is by weekday. You choose which days of the week a visit repeats and a date range - there's no "every two weeks" option.
- One difference between phone and web: on your phone a recurring schedule can run with no end date; on the web an end date is required.
