MyTime allows businesses to create custom client icons, making it easy to identify important client attributes at a glance. These icons can be used to personalize client profiles and enhance visibility during appointment scheduling.
Things to Know:
- The ability to manage and configure custom icons is governed by the "Manage Client Setup" access control setting.
- For franchise businesses with global client sharing enabled, custom icons can be created at either the global (parent) level or the local (child) level.
- Icons can be selected from predefined options provided by MyTime or uploaded using SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format for full customization.
- If a custom client icon field is marked as required, the system will require that information before saving.
- Once created, custom icons will be available when editing client details but will not be automatically assigned—they must be manually selected per profile.
- Multiple icons can be assigned to a single client profile, allowing for a rich representation of client characteristics.
- After assignment, icons will be visible on both the appointment modal and appointment tooltip in the Scheduler.
