How to Book a Class in the Calendar

Step 1: Navigate to the Calendar

Start by logging into your Pabau account using your login credentials, then navigate to the Calendar located on the left sidebar menu. 

Step 2: Book a Class

On the calendar, select an available slot where you want to book the class, and the book an appointment modal will open. At the top of the modal, you can switch to the "Class" tab to get started with booking a class. 

From here, you can book classes directly via the calendar by selecting the desired class and enrolling participants.

The booking flow is similar to the Appointments tab, you can select one or more staff members, choose the location, room, and equipment, with a few key differences:

• The "Book from Package" option will not appear, as individual clients are not pre-selected.

• You can only choose from services that are set as type: Class.

• You can add multiple participants to a class. In the right section of the pop-up window, you can manually add clients to the class. However, adding participants is not required to book the class, you can book it with zero participants and add them later.

When booking a class in the calendar, you’ll have several fields and options available to tailor the session:

• Start Time & Duration
  Choose when the class starts and how long it will last.

• Room Selection
  Select a room for the class. Room availability functions the same as for regular appointments, only available rooms will be shown.

• Class Notes
  Add internal notes related to the class. These are not visible to clients.

• Repeat Class
  Use this option if you'd like to set up a recurring class schedule.

• Notifications
  Configure how notifications will be sent to clients and staff attending the class.  

• Search Bar to Add Participants
  Use the search bar to look up and add clients to the class. You can book a class with one, multiple, or even zero participants and add them later.

• Members Dropdown
  A handy dropdown that allows you to quickly add clients who have active memberships that apply to the class being booked. 

Once you're done adding the information, proceed to click the "Book Class" button on the bottom of the modal.

This button stays greyed out until all mandatory fields are completed:

• Class service
• Staff member
• Location

By following these steps, you can successfully book a class in the Calendar.
