Recurring Grooming Appointments

Choose between two and twelve additional appointments, or select Keep repeating for an ongoing schedule.

Keep repeating maintains appointments about a year ahead and adds more as time passes. Appointments beyond the current planning window are marked unconfirmed and checked again as their dates get closer.

Save a client’s preferred schedule on their profile, including multiple weekdays and exact time ranges. A client can prefer Tuesdays from 9am to noon and Thursdays from noon to 3pm.

Choose Book preferred days when creating the series to try those saved windows first. The full appointment must fit inside a preferred window.

If no preferred window works, Minouflow checks the original appointment day and time, then follows the recurring appointment flexibility rules set for your salon.

Use the client’s previous appointments to identify their usual day and time when choosing the next appointment. Manually saved preferences take priority over a pattern learned from history.

The system needs enough appointment history before showing a learned preference. Cancelled appointments and no-shows are excluded, and the groomer’s working days are considered when identifying a preferred weekday.

Choose what happens when a recurring appointment’s usual time is unavailable.

• Same day only: look for another available time on the original day.
• Same week: try another time that day, then nearby days within the same week.
• Always ask: leave an unavailable time for staff to resolve.

Automatic changes look for times close to the original appointment and apply the salon’s rules for avoiding small gaps. These options can be adjusted under Recurring visit flexibility in calendar settings.

Choose whether a date or time change applies to this appointment or all future appointments in the series.

Moving one appointment leaves the later appointments on their existing schedule. Applying the change to future appointments uses the new day and time to calculate the remaining dates, with availability checked again.

Past appointments remain in the client’s history.

Cancel one appointment when the client needs to miss a date, or cancel that appointment and all later appointments in the series.

Cancelling the future appointments also ends the repeat schedule, so an ongoing series stops adding new appointments. Cancelled appointments remain recorded in the history.
