How to setup services if you are part of a group 

On SalonIQ Hub go to, Menu > Settings > Services > Choose Service > Online Bookings.

• Book online - Switch the toggle to green to activate online bookings for your salon
• Add to favourites - Switch the toggle to green to add this service to your favourites, this service will then show at the top of your online booking menu. We recommend adding your top 10 services to your favourites list
• Not bookable online by itself - Select this if another service is required at the time of booking. 

• Required - You can select multiple required services. This is used to stop clients from booking a colour online without choosing a finishing service. You can select Cut & Finish and a blow dry. Once the client selects a colour it will ask your clients to choose from the list of your required services.
• Upgrade - Select an upgrade for a service. You can upsell your treatments with each service. Once a service is selected online the client will then be offered the upgraded service.
• Parallel - This allows the client to have 2 services booked at the same time alongside each other with 2 different team members. You can select a colour & nail appointment. They will then both appear on the appointment book at the same time in the correct columns.

Repeat this process for all services that you wish to be available to be booked online.
