The waiting lists feature in Barkley HQ is used to record the details of any client that wants to make an appointment at a time which currently is not available. Having a waiting list gives you the option to call and book the client if a booking is cancelled.

Details which can be saved using waiting lists are:

– Name/Phone number of the client
– Service to be booked
– Date and Time that the client is available
– Client’s preferred employee
– General notes

To utilise the waiting list function:

Step 1: Click the Clients tab and select Waiting Lists.

Step 2: Click Add New.

Step 3: The Waiting List details will appear. Enter in the details and click Save.

Step 4: Click Check Today’s Availability.

Step 5: If there is a booking available, it will alert you with the time the employee can fit the client. If the client wishes to have this appointment, click Book.
