Location Hours Add-On: A Premium Feature for Enhanced Scheduling on Bookingor

For businesses that operate across multiple locations or have varying hours of operation, managing schedules efficiently is essential to ensure smooth customer bookings and streamlined operations. Bookingor now offers the Location Hours Add-On, a premium feature designed to give you advanced control over the operating hours of different locations, providing greater flexibility and precision in managing your business.

The Location Hours Add-On allows you to set exact business hours for each of your locations. This will make scheduling easy, so clients can book services at the right time and place. This feature is highly useful for businesses with multiple branches or those that operate at different times depending on the day, holidays, or special events.

Key Features of the Location Hours Add-On

1. Customized Hours for Multiple Locations

The Location Hours Add-On lets you set different opening hours for each location. If the business runs several branches with different hours, you may personalize their availability. Then, clients can search and book an appointment based on specific location hours.

    • Set individual hours for each branch (e.g., Location A: 9 AM – 6 PM; Location B: 10 AM – 8 PM).
    • Eliminate confusion and prevent overbooking by displaying only available slots based on the location’s hours.
    • Manage hours for single locations or multi-location businesses all from one central dashboard.

2. Holiday and Special Day Adjustments

The Add-On allows you to customize holiday schedules and special days when your regular hours might change. Therefore, in case your business is closed or operates with different hours during holidays, you may tweak the calendar to reflect this, and clients will only view what actually applies-meaning they will only see when you're open.

    • Block out holidays when locations are closed.
    • Create special hours for peak seasons or promotional events.
    • Update holiday hours easily across all locations, ensuring clients see accurate booking availability.

3. Custom Weekly Schedules

This feature allows you to select varying opening times for each day of the week at each location. Businesses that have different hours on weekends, longer hours on certain days, or part-time hours can now reflect those changes without having to do it manually during booking.

    • Create a customized schedule for weekdays and weekends (e.g., Monday-Friday: 9 AM – 5 PM, Saturday: 10 AM – 4 PM, Sunday: Closed).
    • Modify hours to accommodate unique weekly business needs.

4. Real-Time Updates for Clients

Once you set the operating hours for each location, your clients will only be able to book appointments based on those hours. The Location Hours Add-On automatically syncs with your booking page, so your clients can see the current availability for each branch in real time.

This prevents any confusion or missed appointments due to clients booking outside your operating hours. It also provides a seamless and transparent experience for customers, allowing them to book with confidence.

This means that staff members will only be available for bookings during the location’s operating hours. You can prevent scheduling conflicts and ensure that both location hours and employee shifts align, ensuring a smooth and efficient booking process.

6. Multi-Location Dashboard

Managing multiple locations doesn’t have to be complicated. The Location Hours Add-On provides a centralized dashboard where you can view and manage the operating hours for all your branches. Easily switch between locations and make changes as needed, all from a single, user-friendly interface.ded. Clients can also choose their preferred location and see that branch’s hours specifically.
