Add a staff member
One row per person. Give them a role, and services if they take bookings.
Every appointment lives against a staff member — that is the calendar column it sits in.
Steps
- Open Dashboard → Staff.
- Click Add staff.
- Fill in the fields:
- Display name — what customers see on the booking page. Required.
- Avatar — optional photo.
- Email and phone — both optional. Email is what "email me when booked" uses.
- Colour tag — how their bookings are shaded on the calendar. Worth setting properly the moment you have three people.
- Bio — optional, up to 280 characters, shown on the public page.
- Save.
Then set what they do
Open the staff row and use Services they do & pricing. Tick each service they offer. A staff member with nothing ticked does not appear on the public page at all, which is how you add a receptionist without putting them in front of customers.
The same panel takes a price and duration override per service, so one stylist's haircut can be $65 and 50 minutes while another's is $45 and 35, without creating two services.
Then set when they work
Their weekly hours are on Dashboard → Hours, further down the page. They default to the shop's hours, so a full-timer needs nothing. See Set staff hours.
How many staff can I add?
| Plan | Staff cap |
|---|---|
| Starter | 1 |
| Pro | Unlimited |
If you are on Starter and you add a second staff member, we prompt you to upgrade before saving.
There is no role field
Booked does not label people Barber or Stylist. Job titles are a bio matter. What does exist is account access: whether a person can sign in to the dashboard, and at what level, is separate from being a staff member on the calendar.
