When you add a Service to your Service Menu, you can include built-in Prep and Recovery Time that will add a buffer to the beginning and/or end of an appointment, creating gaps between appointments on the Schedule.
Your Availability hours do not need to accommodate Prep Time for the first appointment of your day or Recovery Time for the last appointment of your day.
For example, if your Availability on Mondays is from 9am - 5pm, an Appointment can be booked online at 9am even if the service includes any Prep Time, and an Appointment can end at 5pm even if the Service includes any recovery time.
Prep and Recovery Time will continue to work the same for the rest of your appointments that are booked throughout the day. It cannot overlap with Blocked Time or other Appointments that are currently on your Schedule.
If needed, you can edit the Prep or Recovery time for a specific appointment by following the steps here: Editing Prep and Recovery Time for In Office Appointments
Note: You can edit your Prep and Recovery per Service in MassageBook under Business Setup > Service Menu, and you can edit your Available hours per day by following the steps here.
