Set up booking statuses

  • Article

Booking statuses allow you to create multiple substatuses mapped to each of your booking statuses in order to more precisely define your company's unique business processes. On the schedule board, booking statuses show in alphabetical order and grouped by their parent status. To change the order, update the name accordingly.
