What's New?: Let's get started!
Select pet(s) first!
While this is a small change in the workflow, it is huge when it comes to aligning the workflow with the conversation that you are having with Pet Parents.
Create a new customer record on the fly!
You can now create a new owner and animal directly from the New Appointment Page.
Easily view Owner and Pet details!
We have added more details about the Owner and Pet for you to review while booking an appointment. This allows you to easily view crucial details about the pet that you are booking for. This includes the pet photo, which can be highly valuable when booking services such as grooming.
See last booked Specialist!
A lot of Pet Parents like to book with the same specialist over and over again, so you can now quickly see which specialist the pet was last booked with!
We have added this feature to both the New Appointment page and to the workflow when adding an appointment to a Daycare or Boarding reservation!
Book from History!
You can now book directly from the pet's history! When you select the 'Add from History' button, you will be able to select from that pet's 3 most recent appointments and seamlessly rebook the same appointment including service type, specialist, add-ons, service price, duration, and service notes! After selecting the previous appointment that you would like to rebook, all you need to do is select the appointment date and time.
Add Daycare to Grooming!
It's now fast and easy to add Daycare to a Grooming appointment! Simply select the Daycare reservation type that you would like to book that pet for, and Gingr will automatically adjust the main reservation type of the booking to Daycare with the appointment attached.
Helpful Hint!
The options that appear here will be any reservation types that are assigned to the Daycare Booking Category in your app. To learn more about managing Booking Categories, click here!
Enable the Redesigned New Appointment Page: Let's make it active!
Upon release, the redesigned New Appointment Page will be an opt-in experience. When first loading the page, any Admin users in your Gingr app will have an option at the top right to 'Use New Version.'
Please be aware that once the new version is enabled by an Admin, this will update the workflow for all users within the app, across all locations.
If needed, you can revert back to the legacy workflow by having an Admin select the 'Use Old Version' button in the top right corner.
