Summary:

Adding Guests to Appointments

When scheduling appointments, you might be dealing with bigger teams or other occasions on which it's necessary to include more than one participant. Our CRM has simplified this process by allowing the primary attendee to add guests directly through the booking widget or appointment modal. 

Setting the Option to Add Guests

To add guests to an appointment first enable the option for the desired calendar by going to the Calendar section and selecting the Calendar Settings Tab.

We recommend using Name and email for guests as it allows you to know who will be joining but you can select count only if you feel that information is unnecessary. Once selected click Save at the top right corner.
