Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will enabling Services disrupt my existing calendars or workflows? No. When you enable Services, GHL Customer Care automatically copies your existing service calendars and creates equivalent Services. Your current calendars and any workflows tied to them continue to work exactly as they do today. You can run Meetings (Existing Calendars) and Services side by side or enable only the one that fits best. This ensures that the transition is smooth and without disruptions.
Q: Do I have to connect payments before enabling Services? No, but you must connect a provider before collecting payments on the booking page.
Q: Can I enable Services for only some sub-accounts?
Yes. Since the activation of services is done on a per sub-account basis, you can roll it out selectively. Enabling Services in specific sub-accounts will not affect the other (non-selected) sub-accounts.
Q: Are Services supported in snapshots?
Yes! You can include the following assets when creating or loading a Snapshot: Calendar Services, Calendar Service Add-Ons, Calendar Service Categories and Calendar Service Resources. These assets are selectable independently while creating or restoring Snapshots, giving agencies full flexibility.
Q: Can I edit a Service Appointment after it is booked?
Yes but what you can edit depends on whether the appointment is unpaid or paid.
Unpaid Service Appointments: You can edit most details directly from the appointment edit screen, including adding/removing services and add-ons, changing duration, service variants, staff, location, appointment title, date/time, timezone, and coupon codes.
Paid Service Appointments: Structural changes (for example, changing the service or staff) remain restricted after payment is collected. The edit screen shows a message explaining what is editable. To make broader changes, click Duplicate Appointment to clone the appointment, update the duplicated appointment, and rebook.
