Create, Check in and Check out Service Reservations
You have already created personal services as well as the corresponding staff members, and now your customer wants to reserve a service with you, such as a haircut? You will learn how to do that in this How-To.
For example, if you want to add a telephone reservation, you work with the Reservations module in enforePOS.
In the POS menu, open Reservations > Inbox.
To add a reservation, tap on in the left column. ⮕ The Select window opens.
Select the service you would like to reserve here.⮕ The Details window opens. If you have already created the customer, follow steps 4 and 5. If you haven't created the customer yet, skip steps 4 and 5.
If you have already created the caller as a customer in enforePOS, the customer list will be displayed when you start typing the name in the Add Customer... field.
Then select the customer that appears in the list.
If you haven't created the customer yet, enter the name of the customer in the Add Customer... field.
Tap on Create New Customer to add the name and contact details at this point.⮕ The Create Private Customer window opens.
Enter the customer's mobile phone, home phone, email or home address here.
