🇬🇧🇮🇪🇦🇺🇳🇿🇨🇦 UK/ROI, APAC, CA - How to add, edit and hide appointment cancellation reasons

Written by Amber Morris

How do I add a cancellation reason?

  • Navigate to 'Settings' on your toolbar

  • Click into 'Diary' and then 'Appointment Cancellation Reasons'.

  • You need to have Level 4 (Administrator) permissions.

  • Select 'New Appointment Cancellation Reason'.

  • Type in your cancellation reason.

  • Select your cancellation type.

  • Click 'Save'.

This reason can now be used against appointments and reported on in reports such as the 'Appointments' report.

💡 Top tip: Use appointment reasons to manage your short notice cancellations - create a reason called 'Short notice cancellation' so you can track when this occurs. We recommend then using the short notice filler to then fill cancelled appointment slots.


How do I edit or remove a cancellation reason?

  • Click on the 'Edit' 📝 icon to the right of the cancellation reason.

  • You can edit the name of change the type from here.

  • Or you can mark the reason as 'Hidden?' to stop it from being used and appearing on reports going forward.

  • Make sure to click 'Save' to save any changes.
