Are you:
- A practitioner with the ability to see multiple patients at once?
- An office administrator trying to double book a practitioner but can’t fit it in the shift?
- A staff member trying to book a Break next to an appointment?
Have no fear our Double Booking feature is here!
Before getting started with the Double Booking feature, you would need to ensure this setting is turned on under Settings > Schedule Settings > Allow double booking. Don’t forget to hit Save.
Now if you’re needing to squeeze in some double bookings on the schedule administratively, you can do so by using the keyboard shortcut “D”.
Simply navigate to your schedule, hit the “D” key once, and your appointments will slide over allowing you to double book.
Once you’re finished double booking, hit the “D” key again to make the schedule go back to its regular view.
Double Booking on a mobile device (phone or other small screen)
To Double Book on a mobile device you’ll want to tap and hold an open slot in your schedule to bring up the New Appointment panel. This will allow you to manually use the Time dropdown menu to adjust the appointment to where you would like it to be double booked.
Once you have completed the fields required for the New Appointment, you can hit Book Appointment and Jane will Double Book the appointment at the Time you specified.
Online Double Booking
Online double-booking requires one of our advanced scheduling features, Rooms, which is available on the Thrive Plan.
Since online double booking uses a different setup, we’ve put together a Online Double Booking guide which covers this process from start to finish.
