Appointments in Package

In this article, we will discuss appointments covered by a package.

Things to know:

• For appointments scheduled in store, a package is considered 'used' if the appointment time has passed, the appointment has been marked as completed, or if a ticket has been generated, even if the ticket hasn't been closed.
• For appointments booked online, package items are considered used once the ticket has been saved/closed or if the appointment is marked as completed.
• When scheduling an appointment, the package icon, along with the number of item credits used and remaining in the package, will be visible. This information will also be displayed on the appointment modal and tile immediately after an appointment is scheduled
• If a package is utilized to cover an appointment and subsequently the appointment is canceled, the credit will automatically be refunded to the package benefit
• The package label will not be visible on appointment modals or in POS for packages that have been fully used or have expired
• The package’s validity is based on the local time zone of the location. It remains active from the time of purchase until 11:59 PM local time on the expiration date.
• The available in-package label will still be displayed on the appointment even when the appointment is marked as 'No-Show.'
• Package credits will not be deducted if the appointment is marked as a no-show.
• Package items follow a first-in, first-out (FIFO) consumption method. This means that items from the earliest purchased or added package will be used first when redeeming on a ticket, regardless of whether other packages in the profile have an earlier expiration date.
• Staff commission for items in packages is configured when the package is created. The commission is calculated based on either the retail price of the individual package item or the calculated package price (price of the package/ quantity of item credit).
• The package balances report shows the remaining items in each active package. For more information, please see here.
• Package credits are applied to the cheapest eligible service on a ticket. For example, if checking out multiple eligible services in POS while the client has only one package credit, the credit will be applied to the cheapest service on the ticket.
