Log In to Multiple Accounts on the Same Computer

Filed under: Tips & Tricks — Patrick @ 11:00 am

Do you and your colleagues have separate Full Slate accounts? Do you all share the same computer at work? No problem!

Each of you can log in to your Full Slate account simultaneously on the same computer and even in the same browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari). All you have to do is:

  • Launch your browser and log in to Full Slate with one account. Important: before you click ‘OK’, check the ‘Keep me logged in’ box.
  • Open a second tab within your browser.
  • In that second tab, go to Full Slate, log out of the first account and log in to the second Full Slate account.
  • Repeat for any other Full Slate accounts.

That’s it! We recommend you consider the security risks of leaving your account open to others, but if you’re comfortable with that, you and your colleagues can all maintain your separate schedules on the same computer.

Control the Order in Which Appointments are Assigned to Staff Members

Filed under: Tips & Tricks — Patrick @ 11:47 am

One of our customers recently called to ask if she could control the order in which appointments are assigned to staff members when the client does not indicate a staff preference. This customer operates a hair salon with four stylists; the salon uses a policy where appointments are assigned based on seniority.

Recognizing the value of such a feature, we built it the next day and released it the day after that. So now, if you operate a business with multiple providers and want to control the order in which appointments are assigned, all you have to do is 1)  turn on the staff prioritization setting under Setup > Booking Rules and 2)  drag and drop your staff members into the correct order under Setup > Staff.

That’s one of the reasons we welcome all your questions…many are loaded with great ideas!

Customize How Services Are Presented to Your Clients

Filed under: New & Improved — Patrick @ 11:46 am

You now have much greater control over how the services your business performs are presented to clients.

For starters, you can manage the order in which services are listed on your landing page. Simply visit Services under your Company tab and, from the list of services, drag and drop them into the order you desire. Your services will then be presented to clients in that order when they book an appointment.

And further, you can now categorize your services to make it easier for your clients to find the service they want. As a hairstylist, you might categorize your services into ‘Haircuts’, ‘Foils’ and ‘Coloring’. As a massage therapist, you could categorize by modality. And as an esthetician, you might use categories for ‘Facials’, ‘Nail Care’ and ‘Sugaring’. This feature is entirely customizable so you can present your services in whatever way best meets the needs of your business.
