Reschedule on the Same Booking Page [Classic]

If your Master page includes multiple Booking pages and associated Event types, you can define how bookings will be assigned during the scheduling process. You can decide whether or not a rescheduled booking is assigned to the same Team member originally assigned to it.

If you enable this option, the same Team member is responsible for the service provided to the Customer during the entire booking lifecycle, resulting in a smooth Customer experience.

In this article, you will learn how to ensure that Customers reschedule with the same Booking page.

Scheduling scenarios

When the Customer reschedules a booking while restricted rescheduling is enabled, they will be presented with the same Booking page that the original booking was made on. The reschedule option is available whether you work with Automatic mode or Booking with approval.

Note

If the Booking page ownership has been changed, the Customer will see the updated Booking page, rather than the original one.

The reschedule option is applied to the following scheduling scenarios:

Customer reschedules a booking

The Customer clicks the Cancel/reschedule link from the booking confirmation notification and reschedules the booking.

If the Booking owner and Booking page owner are the same: In the Activity stream, the original event is simply updated with the new time and moved in the calendar as a Rescheduled activity. There is no canceled activity and one calendar event is used for the entire booking lifecycle, keeping your records more consistent and efficient.
If the Booking owner and Booking page owner are different: In the Activity stream, the original activity is canceled and a new activity is created. Learn more about Booking reassignment

User sends a request to reschedule for the same Event type

In this case, the Customer clicks the Reschedule now button in the reschedule request email notification (Figure 3) and reschedules the booking. In the Activity stream, the original activity is canceled and a new activity is created when the Customer reschedules. Learn more about rescheduling by User with Event types
