Appointments are the services admin users can set up in the Calendar option.
Within the appointment, you can define
Individual or group appointments
Length of the appointment
Individual or multi-coach appointment types
Contact type such as video call, zoom, phone call, etc.
After creating an appointment type, users begin the scheduling process by choosing which appointment type they want to book. For more information, refer to .
This guide reviews how to use multi-coach appointments, add, edit, and delete appointment types.
There are two appointment types concepts
Individual
A coach has an appointment with one or more members (also called group appointments). The availability of this appointment type is based on the user’s assigned coach.
If the user doesn’t have an assigned coach, then the appointment is assigned to a default coach.
Example:
A user has a credit for a “30 min coaching call”. Then, this user selects the“30 min coaching call” option and checks the availability of his assigned coach. Once the user selects a time, the appointment is scheduled with his coach.
Note: If the user doesn’t have an assigned coach, then the meeting is assigned to the default coach set in the appointment type.
Collective
All coaches need to participate in the call. The availability is based on when everyone is available.
Example:
A user has a credit for an “advanced lab test review call”. Then, this user selects the “advanced lab test review call” option and checks the common availability of all the three coaches that need to be a part of this meeting. Once the user selects a time, the appointment is scheduled with all the coaches. Therefore, the meeting appears in all three coach’s calendars, enabling the user to see all the participants in the meeting.
Round Robin
A single coach (first available coach) needs to participate in the call. The availability is based on when anyone is available.
Example:
A user has a credit for a “welcome call”. Then, this user selects the welcome call option and checks the availability of “any available coach” set to the welcome call appointment type. Once the user selects a time, the appointment is scheduled with the first available coach. Therefore, the meeting appears in a coach’s calendar, enabling the user to see his coach for the meeting.
