Helpful Hints: Before you begin.

• In Gingr, additional services are services that are scheduled during a reservation. For example, a Full Groom service that is scheduled for a Grooming reservation type is considered an additional service (“Grooming” is considered the “reservation type”). Additional services can have optional add-ons (called Service Options) which allow customers to customize and add on to the service that they are scheduling with you.
  
  
• As an example, a customer might schedule a “Grooming” reservation for a “Bath and Brush” service and choose to add a “Nail Dremel” to the Bath and Brush.
  
  
• A single Service Option can be tagged to multiple additional services so there is no need to create duplicated service options.
  
  
• All admin users have access to the admin page controlling these settings. Additionally, admin users are able to delegate this particular admin page to other user groups. Non-admin users with access to this page will be able to make edits that affect all locations in the app. For more information see our article on User Groups and Permissions.

Set it Up: Let's get started.  

Step 1: Set up service options.

1. Navigate to Left-hand Navigation: Admin » Reservation Types and Services Configuration and locate the additional service that you want to create an add-on for by selecting the Booking Category > Reservation Type > Allowed Service > + Add Option.
   
2. Click + Add Option. Note that once you have service options set up, you can also use the Default Options button to designate add-on options that will be automatically applied to this additional service when it's added to this reservation type.
   
   
   
3. If you have already created a service option add-on for another service and also want it to be available on this one, you can add that same service option here by selecting it under “Allow an existing service option.” If you need to create a a new service, click on the grey Create a New Service Option box.
4. To customize the service option settings, reference the field guide below and make any adjustments as necessary. The settings are grouped together in sections to help you find what you need, and a description is displayed for each setting to help you understand what it does.
