Services: creating and editing

The service list

Adding a service

1. Click “Add service”. A full-height panel opens on the right with the “Basic”, “Performers” and “Advanced settings” tabs; the “Save” button is always at the bottom of the panel. On a phone the panel takes the whole screen.
2. On the “Basic” tab, fill in:
   • “Service name” — 2 to 120 characters. This is what clients see.
   • “Description” — optional, up to 600 characters.
   • “Section” — which section the service belongs to. The default is “No section”.
   • “Duration” — from 15 minutes to 30 days, in 15-minute steps. Type a number and pick the units: minutes, hours or days. For example “90 minutes”, “2.5 hours” or “3 days”.
   • “Can run outside working hours” — for rentals, hire and overnight services. More in “Rentals and multi-day services” below.
   • “Base price” — the price for every performer who doesn't have their own.
   • “Currency” — defaults to the “Default currency” from “Settings” → “Business”.
3. On the “Performers” tab, tick who performs the service. A service can't be saved without a performer: the form switches to this tab and asks you to “Tick at least one performer on the “Performers” tab.”
4. Click “Save”.

Rentals and multi-day services

Rentals of whole days: pick-up and return times

• Fixed length (the default) — the number of days and the price are the service's. For example, “3 days” for 500.
• The client picks the number of days — the client chooses the pick-up and return dates. Instead of a duration, set “Minimum days” and “Maximum days” (up to 30), and instead of the base price — “Price per day”. The booking's sum = price per day × number of days.

• The client picks dates only. Instead of a list of times, your page shows a calendar: free dates are active, taken ones inactive. Below it the client sees the period, for example “Pick-up: October 3 from 10:00 · Return: October 6 by 10:00”. When the client picks the number of days, they mark the pick-up date and the return date, and the sum shows below the calendar too: “2 days × 300 = 600”. Dates that would make the rental shorter than the minimum, longer than the maximum, or run into busy time can't be chosen. See How clients book on your page.
• YEMISCE works out the sum from the service's price per day (or the specialist's individual price on the “Performers” tab — per day too) and the number of days. The number of days is checked against the minimum and the maximum.
• A date is free only when the whole period is free — from the pick-up time on the first day to the return time on the last. The pick-up and the return must fall within working hours, so a rental doesn't start or end on a non-working day — unless “Pick-up and return on days off” is on (see below).
• In the cabinet, booking such a service turns the “Time” field into the pick-up time and adds “Return time”. For a service where the client picks the number of days there's also “Number of days”, with the period and the sum below it. You can change the pick-up and return times for one booking — YEMISCE checks the period doesn't overlap other bookings. The booking card shows “Pick-up … · Return …” and the sum.
• Rescheduling — by you or by the client from their booking link — is by dates too. When the client picks the number of days, it can change as well (within the minimum and maximum); the new sum shows before confirming. If the sum changed, the booking card says “The sum changed: it was 600, now 900”. A payment mark isn't changed — update it if needed.
• Dragging in the calendar keeps the booking's length. A rental whose days the client chose can't be stretched or shortened by dragging — open the booking and reschedule it with the new number of days.
• Emails and reminders show “Pick-up … from … · Return … by …”, and when the client chose the number of days, the sum too, for example “2 days × 300 = 600”.
• Other features. The waitlist for such a service is by dates only, without a preferred time; when the client picks the number of days, they also say how many days they need. “Open today” and the earlier-time offer are for the same period of the same length. Recurring bookings use the pick-up time. Session packages use one visit per booking.

Pick-up and return on days off

Translating the name and description

• An empty field shows the name or description in the primary language to clients using that language.
• You don't have to translate everything: you can translate only the name and leave the description.
• Clients see the translated name on the page, in the booking form, on the booking management page and in booking emails.
• The same “Translations” block translates a service section's name (the pencil next to the section name), the booking form's additional field names and the aftercare instructions (the “Advanced settings” tab) and a performer's level for this service (the “Performers” tab).

Editing a service

Hiding a service or switching it off

• “Show in online booking” — turn it off and the service disappears from your page, but you can still book clients into it from the calendar with “Booking”. Useful for services you only arrange in person.
• “Active” — turn it off and the service can't be booked at all, neither on the page nor in the calendar. It is marked “Hidden” in the list. Existing bookings for it stay in place.

Service currency

Advanced settings

• “Capacity” — turns the service into a group session. See Group bookings.
• “Additional fields at booking” — questions the client answers in the booking form. See Custom booking fields.
• “Aftercare” — recommendations and a check-in after the visit. See Aftercare.
