Appointment Kinds

Appointment kinds define the categories of bookings in your studio — like “Tattoo Session”, “Consultation”, “Piercing”, or “Touch-up”. Each kind controls what features are available and how appointments appear on the calendar.

Go to Company Settings → Appointment Kinds to view, create, edit, and manage your kinds.

Each appointment kind has:

  • Name — The display name shown on the calendar and in badges
  • Internal name — An optional name only visible to staff (not shown to customers)
  • Color — A background and foreground color pair used for calendar tiles and badges
  • Default — Whether this kind is pre-selected when creating new appointments

Each kind can enable or disable specific features. When a feature is disabled, its corresponding section is hidden from the create/edit appointment page:

Each kind can be associated with specific services from your catalog.

The kind’s color determines how appointments appear on the calendar:

  • Background color — The tile’s fill color
  • Border color — A blended accent border
  • Text — Displayed in italic with the foreground color

From the kind’s options menu, you can:

  • Clone — Create a copy of this kind with all settings
  • Delete — Soft-delete the kind
  • Restore — Restore a deleted kind
