We're Moving to a New Support Platform – Starting June 1st!

We’re excited to let you know that starting June 1st, we’ll be transitioning to a new support system that will be available directly on our product websites – Amelia, wpDataTables, and Report Builder. In fact, the new support platform is already live for Amelia and wpDataTables, and we encourage you to reach out to us there.

You'll always be able to reach us through a widget in the bottom right corner of each website, where you can ask questions, report issues, or simply get assistance.

While we still do not offer live support, a new advanced, AI-powered assistant, trained on our documentation, use cases, and real conversations with our team, is there to help with basic to intermediate questions in no time.

We're doing our best to make this transition smooth and hassle-free. After June 1st, this current support website will redirect you to the new "Contact Us" pages on our product sites.

Thanks for your continued support and trust – we’re excited to bring you an even better support experience!

How To Handle Multiple Locations?

    Matthew Johnson started the conversation

    So I set up two locations, one physical (an office) and one meant to be online.

    Two locations exist in the system.

    However, from what I can tell, an employee can only be assigned to one location. If the employee is myself and I can take appointments either at a physical location or online, why is there a limitation to that?

    Is there a way around this?

    I also don't see a way to assign a location to a service, such that I could at least create a workaround for something like:

    30-minute session (online)

    30-minute session (in-person)

    60-minute session (online)

    60-minute session (in-person)

    Then I could simply add myself to all of those, but as I stated, I don't see a way to add a location to a service, but I can see that it's very easy to do so for events.


    Essentially, I don't see a way to add Locations to either Services or multiple Locations to Employees.

    Hopefully there is a fix for this.

    Hello Matthew.

    Each employee has a default location which can be changed in Working Hours of the Employee, but only per time periods. So, you are right when you say you can't assign an employee to both locations at the same time.

    Since you're the only employee, you won't see a drop-down for location in the booking form.

    The locations are linked to an employee, so a work-around here would be to duplicate the employee, and assign each employee to a different location. Both employees could be assigned to both services (30 minute and 60 minute sessions), without having to add additional services for online and in-person.

    This would be done through the booking form:

    So, depending on the selected location, one of your employees would be assigned to the appointment. A down-side to this is, that the same time slot would remain open for another employee, and since you're the only employee it could cause an issue.

    We are currently working on enabling multiple locations at the same periods for an employee, but I cannot say when that will be released.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards,
