Managing Locations

Learn how to create, configure, edit, and delete Locations, including attributes, templates, Headquarters Values, and organizational settings across your account.

Written by Sabrina Herrera

📝 Overview

The Locations feature allows your account to be expanded to an unlimited number of Locations, all sharing the same database and reporting functions. Each Location receives its own Site Administration page, and many settings, including preferences, Staff Members, and Services, can be shared or configured independently across Locations.

⛔️ Please Note: Only Headquarter Administrators can manage multiple Locations. The billing system is Location-based. As Locations are added to your account, your base billing price will be affected. Please reach out to Support for more pricing information.


🏢 What Is a Location?

Locations allow you to manage multiple offices, facilities, or departments under a single account, each with its own staff, services, and scheduling settings. This Term can be edited within the Settings tab > Terms Preferences.

For example, a physical therapy business with three separate office facilities can set all three up under one account. You have many options when setting up multiple Locations, including default sharing of preferences, Staff Members, and Services.

The Location you are currently viewing from your Site Administration page can be determined by checking the Location drop-down menu at the very top of the page.

Unless you have set up additional Locations, this drop-down will only have one option. Many clients also use the Locations functionality to separate and distinguish different aspects or types of their business, not just physical locations.

Department rather than Location.

⚠️ Please Note: When new Locations are added to your account, the Customer View will display a location list prompting customers to select a Location before scheduling an Appointment. The Location list is, by default, the first menu customers must select from in the scheduling process.


🔑 Setting Up a New Location

If you have more than one Location set up, you can switch between them from Site Administration using the Location drop-down menu at the top of the page. Select the desired Location and the page will refresh with that Location's data.

To add a new Location:

  1. Click the Lists tab.

  2. Select Locations on the left.

  3. Click Add New Location.

  4. Enter information for the new Location. All information except for the name, can match the main Location (including physical address, website address, and other details). If you will be setting up additional Locations, it is recommended that you add an identifier, such as "Main", to your Headquarters Location name.

  5. Click Update and Continue.


🛠️ Configuring a Location's Settings

When setting up a new Location, one key decision is whether to base it on Headquarters Values or an existing Location Template. Both options are described below.

🏢 Use of Headquarters Values

When setting up a new Location, the system prompts you to decide whether to use (or share) values from your Headquarters Location. Your Headquarters Location is the first Location set up on the account.

Click here to learn more

Headquarters values that are shared include:

  • Preferences

  • Services

When sharing these values, the new Location will not have its own independent Settings section, preference changes made at the Headquarters Location will affect all Locations sharing those values.

📋 Use of a Location Template

Using a Location Template allows you to establish initial settings based on another Location without creating a permanent link. Unlike sharing Headquarters Values, changes made to the template Location after setup will not impact Locations created from it.

Click here to learn more

Any existing Location can serve as a template, and you may have more than one template Location. It is recommended that you review the Settings of the Location you wish to use as a template before proceeding.

Make an existing Location a template

  1. Click the Settings tab.

  2. Select the Headquarter Location.

  3. Review the Location's information and ensure it is not sharing Headquarters Values. If not sharing, click the checkbox for Use this Location as a template.

  4. Click Update.

  2. Click Add New Location on the right.

  3. Enter Location details as required, set Headquarters Values to No and select a Location from the Location Template drop-down.

⚠️ Please Note: Any modifications made to settings within the Lists tab are applied to all Locations, including those not set to share Headquarters Values.

⚙️ Location Preferences

Location preference settings for your Headquarters Location play an important role when adding new Locations. To review these settings.

Click here to learn more

  1. Navigate to your Headquarters Location's Site Administration page using the Location drop-down at the top of the page.

  2. Click the Settings tab.

  3. Select Locations Preferences on the left.

  4. Carefully review the settings, then click Update. These preferences control how Customers interact with and select Locations on the front end, and how Staff, Customer records, and access are shared across multiple Locations within your account.

⚠️ Please Note: If you choose to allow Staff Members to be assigned to more than one Location, you can set up separate schedules for each Location through each Staff Member's profile. When setting up a Staff Member's schedule across two or more Locations, do not overlap hours between Locations.


✏️ Viewing and Editing Location Information

Many settings and details configured when a Location was created can be modified at any time. This section covers how to view and edit Location information as either a Headquarters or Location Administrator.

To edit Location information:

  4. Click Update to save your changes.

📍 Location Attributes

The Location Attributes feature lets you create and assign multiple levels of organization to each account Location. This feature requires the API to surface each level of organization through a custom interface. Users can then select from each level of organization: Attributes and Values, to find the Locations that meet their criteria.

⛔️ Please Note: This feature is only available to Platinum Tier accounts and above. For questions or options to upgrade, contact our Support team.
