July 2016 Release

Summer is here, and WellnessLiving is sizzling this month with updates and improvements in all areas. This release consists of some new interfaces that have been built from scratch, for your convenience and ease of use. We won’t make you wait. Relax, grab yourself a Shirley Temple (are those still a thing?), and check out what’s new in WellnessLiving.

Task Management

We say this a lot, but you’ll just have to get used to it: Staying organized is really important. With the introduction of Tasks and Task Management, your to-do lists just got a whole lot easier…and more colourful.

Task Management is a brand new feature to WellnessLiving which provides you with the ability to delegate tasks to your staff members. You can set due dates, completion statuses, and even associate a task to a specific client. Your staff will automatically get notified when a task is assigned to them, and there is an indication right within WellnessLiving when the task is due.

Assign tasks directly from the Client Profile Overview

Task Manager is accessible directly from the top menu

New Purchase Option Type – Duration Pass

Move over Session Pass, there’s a new Purchase Option in town. We are please and excited to announce a whole new way to sell your services: by the duration of the service. With the introduction of the Duration Pass, you are now able to give your clients the ability to book any length of service, and they will only pay for what they use.

And now in layman’s terms: let’s say you offer both 30 minute massage and 60 minute massage. If you create a pass with 10 sessions, you can’t really give your client the flexibility to choose which length of service they want, it needs to be one or the other. With a Duration Pass, you can simply sell the client 600 minutes of massage, and they can choose how it gets used up. Cool, huh?

Attendance Web App and the New Web App Menu

New buttons are always a good thing, right? This handy addition to the staff menu allows you to quickly access all mobile interfaces, no matter what page you’re on.

New Web App Menu
The WellnessLiving gurus out there will have noticed that there is a new page on the menu above: The Client Self Attendance Tab. Now make sure you’re sitting securely on your chair, this feature has already knocked a few people off their feet. With the Client Self Attendance tab, clients can now preview what sessions are coming up on a tablet, choose what class they want to attend, and check themselves in. We would say more, but it’s really that simple. Here’s how it looks…

Once the class is selected, your clients can simply click “Check In”, or start searching for their name if they did not book ahead of time.
