Find your way around the calendar

The toolbar, the six views, what the colours and dots on an appointment mean, and how to filter the calendar down to what you need.

Updated Oct 29, 2026

The calendar is where most of the day happens. It's one schedule you can look at in several ways: a column per team member for today, a week ahead, or a simple list.

The calendar in Day view: the toolbar across the top, with the Waitlist count and Add on the right, a column for each team member, coloured appointment blocks with the time, client and service, and a grey striped block of blocked time.

The six views

Select the view button (it shows the current view, such as Day) and choose one. The calendar remembers your choice.

ViewWhat it showsGood for
DayOne date, a column per team memberThe front desk during the day
3 days and 5 daysThat many dates side by sideA short look ahead
WeekSeven datesPlanning and spotting gaps

AgendaOne date as a list in time orderPhones, or anyone who prefers a list
The Calendar view menu: Day, 3 days, 5 days, Week, Month and Agenda, then a Show cancelled appointments switch and Help with this page.

Cancelled appointments are hidden unless you turn on Show cancelled appointments in the same menu.

Read an appointment

Each block shows the time, the client and the service. Its colour follows the Colour setting: by service (the usual choice), by team member, by status, or by resource, the room or machine the visit reserves (gray when it reserves none). A device that hasn't picked follows the business's choice under Settings → Business → Region & formats.

The small dot in the corner tells you where a live appointment stands:

DotMeaning
AmberBooked, not yet confirmed
GreenConfirmed
BlueChecked in
Pulsing greenIn service now

Finished appointments lose their colour: Completed turns grey, while Cancelled (rose) and No-show (red) are faded and struck through.

If your business uses status labels, such as Running late, a label's icon sits beside the dot, and a tall enough block shows the label's name too. A label never changes the block's colour or its dot.

Grey striped blocks are blocked time, such as a lunch or a training session. See Block time and the waitlist.

On a computer, rest the pointer on a block to see a preview with the client, service and price. Select it to open the appointment panel.

Filter the calendar

Open the filters

Select the sliders button (Open filters).

Choose what to show

Pick from Appointment status, Channel (Admin booking, Kiosk check-in, Public booking or API), Payment status, Services, Appointment creation date, Requested team member, Client tags and Client segments.

Apply

Select Apply. The button counts how many filters you've chosen. Clear filters removes them all.

If the calendar looks emptier than it should, check the filters first. They stay on as you move between dates, and the filters button shows a count while any are on.

Focus on one team member

Open their menu

In Day view, select the team member's name at the top of their column.

Choose a view

Under View as, choose Day, 3 days, Week or Month.

Go back to everyone

A chip in the toolbar shows whose calendar you're on, such as "Ingrid's Week". Select its ✕ to see everyone again.

The same menu shows their shift today, a Clock in button, and shortcuts to Add appointment, Block time, Edit shift, Add time off and View team member.

Select an empty slot

Select any empty time in a team member's column. A small menu opens for that exact time, with Add appointment, Group appointment, New quote and Block this time. The date, time and team member are filled in for you.

The quick action menu for 5:45 PM: Add appointment, Group appointment, New quote and Block this time.

On a phone

The toolbar shrinks to the date, the location, the team and a ⋯ menu, which holds Find client, the views, colour, filters, the waitlist and refresh. The round + button in the corner books an appointment, blocks time, starts a group or jumps to today. Agenda is usually the easiest view on a small screen.

If something goes wrong

A team member has no column

  • "Nobody scheduled": no one has working hours that day. Set them under Team → Scheduling, or select Show all team anyway.
  • "Assign your team to this location": the team exists but nobody works at this location. Set the location on their team profile.
  • Otherwise, check Scheduled team under the people icon (choose All team), the filters, and whether a focus chip is on.

"Couldn't load the schedule"

The calendar couldn't reach the server. It doesn't mean the day is empty. Select Refresh.

The calendar shows the wrong location

Change it with the location button in the toolbar. See Switch between locations.
