One appointment per teacher per student |
Restricts parents to one booking per teacher, regardless of the number of classes or students involved. |
|
One appointment per class |
Restricts bookings to one per class, even if multiple students from the same family are enrolled in it. |
|
Allow back-to-back |
When disabled, the system prevents consecutive bookings with different teachers to allow for travel time. |
|
Appointment Cancellation |
|
|
Customers cannot cancel their appointment closer than x hours/days/weeks |
Use this setting to prevent participants from cancelling their appointments within a specific timeframe (hours, days, or weeks) before the scheduled start time. Set this value to 0 if you wish to allow cancellations up until the last minute. Conversely, a very high value effectively disables the cancellation option for participants. Note: Closing the scheduler only prevents new bookings; it does not stop participants from cancelling existing appointments unless this lock-out period is active. |
|
Display "Call to Cancel" message |
Shows a specific instruction for participants to call the office if they try to cancel during the lock-out period. |
|
Close Appointment Booking |
|
|
Close Appointment Booking |
Automates when slots become unavailable (e.g., X hours before the appointment or X days before the event). |
|
If customer cannot book the appointment display |
Shows a ‘Close appointment booking’ message. You can adjust it. |
|
