Services: Assign staff & resources tab

Assign staff & resources tab

Before a service can be booked, it must have at least one staff member or resource assigned to it. This article explains how to assign them, and walks you through the Staff & Resources tab on services. 

Before You Start: 

1. Make sure you have a staff member or resource set up. 
   
2. To get to this section of service creation, go to Inventory > Services > Click on the Service you want to edit.
   
3. To learn more about Staff and Resources, take a look at our Article and come back here.

To assign a staff or resource

1. Navigate to Staff & Resources tab.

2. Select a staff member or resource from the dropdown

3. Click on the staff or resource you want to assign. 
4. Click Update to save changes. 

Staff & Resource Availability

A service's availability is directly tied to the assigned staff or resource's schedule. If a staff member is unavailable or working limited hours, the service will not be bookable during those times.

To adjust availability:

1. Use Fine-Tune Availability to modify specific dates.
2. Adjust default working hours under Settings > Staff.
   

💡 Tip: Staff / Resource Names not visible to customers - allows customers or guests to choose the staff or resource when they make a booking. Helpful if guests or customers have a preference on who they would like to complete the service with. 

Resource-Only Services

Some services require only resources (rooms, vehicles, equipment) rather than staff.

• Leave staff unassigned if a service only requires a resource.
  
• If both staff and resources are assigned, both must be available for a booking to proceed.
