See It in Action: Appointment Booking Made Easy
A picture is worth a thousand words, and we’re here to show you exactly how the appointment booking feature works.
Navigate through these screenshots to get a step-by-step view of how you can streamline your auto repair shop’s scheduling process.
Method 1: Appointment Calendar
Once you are logged into the software, click on the second icon in the left panel in purple color. It will look like a calendar (📅). Or you can expand the options by clicking on a small arrow right next to the Torque360 logo at the top left corner.
You will be taken to the appointment calendar where you can see different options. Let’s explore what each option has to offer.
- On the top center, you can see three options. This allows you to view the calendar day, week, and month-wise.
- Right next to that, at the top right corner, you can see the dates. If you are viewing the calendar day-wise, only the current day date will be visible. If you are viewing week-wise, you can see a weekly calendar, and the same goes for the monthly option.
- The columns and rows show hourly slots for each day. From Sunday through Saturday.
Booking Appointment in Auto Repair Scheduling Software
The next step is to book an appointment. Here’s how you can do it without any hassle:
There are two ways to book an appointment.
- By clicking on the “Book Appointment” button in orange.
- By clicking on slot.
Let’s see how each method works!
1. Book Appointment Button
In this interface, all you have to do is enter details like:
- Customer Name/Mobile Number
- Date & Time
- Time Slot
- Mechanic Name
- Customer Concern
- Notes
Once all the details are entered, simply click on “Book Appointment” in orange color at the bottom right corner.
2. Clicking on Slot
The same interface appears when you click on a slot. You have to follow the above methods here as well.
Once you are done, you can view the scheduled appointments in the calendar on the selected slots. Here is an example:
Method 2: Dashboard
On the dashboard, on the right side of the screen, you can see “Upcoming Appointment”. Here, you can view any upcoming appointments that you have scheduled for a quick view. Right below that, you will find an orange-colored button named “Book Appointment”.
When you click on this button, you can see the same interface that we have explored above. And that’s how the scheduling appointment feature works in Torque360 auto repair shop management software!
