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!
Hello Amelia Team,
i have the following scenario:
my client has 2 different services (buying and selling) and before using Amelia they had two separate email addresses for these, lets say:
[email protected]
[email protected]
Now, as far as I know, i need to create 2 different "employees" for these addresses, as they email address is associated with an employee, not a service.
So far so good. But now, they still want to use one global calendar, so if someone books a "selling service" appointment for 2pm-3pm, then visitors shouldn't be able to book a "buying service" appointment for this taken timeslot. It should block the time anyway, regardless which service was booked.
This is because in reality theres only one employee who is doing the appointments, but as described, they have 2 different email addresses used so far for better organization.
How can i solve this?
Thanks
Hello Nino,
Thanks for reaching out to us. To create different employees, you would need to create them with separate emails , that's correct. You can also connect these employees to the same Google Calendar, and then the timeslots will be shared. There is also a workaround for employees using the same emails address.
Basically, if you use Google or Outlook for emails ,you can put the same email ,
just place " +number" before @ symbol, and you will be able to save employees,
but all emails will go to the same email address.
For example: ' [email protected]', ' [email protected]', ' [email protected] ' etc,
will be different while saving and you will be able to save all employees but all emails will go to ' [email protected]' address.
Here is an example from my "fake employees", this one i name "Nick Employee", and his duplicate i just added the name "duplicate", but they can actually have exactly the same name ( if needed).
I just add the +1 before the @ symbol.
I hope it helps.
Kind Regards,
Stefan Petrov

I would create 1 employee and assign 2 services to the employee, this will send all notifications for each service to the same email address.
If you still need to manage the 2 inboxes (buying and selling), create some forwarding conditions with their email client/email provider which will forward the notifcation emails to the proper inbox.
Sure, that's also one of the workarounds, but i guess creating two employees with the same emails (+1) is an easier configuration than forwarding conditions, but thanks for the suggestion.
