Switching to Salonround? The easiest way to prevent double bookings is to add appointments that are already scheduled to your Salonround calendar in the regular way. Your clients will then automatically receive the confirmation and reminder(s).
Don’t want clients to receive confirmations and reminder(s) again? Then you can block the times of appointments that are already scheduled in your calendar by using ‘Tasks’ (in this case, the appointment that was already scheduled).
