FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can appointments be managed from one calendar?

Yes. PandaCue brings appointments into one organized calendar, giving your team a clear view of bookings and availability.

Is staff availability included in scheduling?

Staff availability can be managed alongside appointments, helping your team avoid conflicts and assign bookings more effectively.

Can clients book available appointment times online?

Yes. Online Booking works with your scheduling setup, allowing clients to view available times and request appointments without calling the salon.

How does PandaCue help prevent scheduling conflicts?

PandaCue can account for provider availability, appointment duration, rooms, equipment, and blocked time when managing the schedule. This helps the front desk avoid placing two appointments on the same resource.

Can appointments be moved without creating a new booking?

Yes. Appointments can be rescheduled within the calendar instead of being deleted and entered again. This keeps the appointment information together while reducing manual work for the front desk.

How does PandaCue keep schedule changes updated across devices?

Schedule changes are reflected across the connected system, so staff working from different devices can see the latest calendar information. This helps prevent one team member from working from an outdated schedule.

What are calendar hold times, and why do salons need them?

Hold times are periods intentionally kept unavailable for things such as lunch, staff meetings, personal time, room preparation, or service buffers. Adding them to the calendar prevents those periods from being accidentally booked.

How can a scheduling system help identify empty appointment gaps?

A clear calendar makes open spaces easier to spot, especially when multiple providers are working at once. Staff can then use those openings for new bookings, rebooking, or clients waiting for an earlier appointment.

How does PandaCue help managers control scheduling access?

PandaCue supports role-based permissions, allowing businesses to control which scheduling actions different team members can perform. For example, front desk staff can be given booking access without giving them permission to perform restricted actions.

What should a salon look for in a calendar and scheduling system?

Look for real-time availability, multi-staff views, provider and service rules, resource management, buffer times, hold periods, role-based permissions, and easy rescheduling. The system should also connect scheduling with client records, booking, and other daily business tasks.
