Point actions are now categorized into four default categories: Attendance, purchasing, reviewing, and social sharing. You can rename, reorganize, and create additional categories with custom point actions. Allow clients to request points for custom actions they&#8217;ve completed, and impose a cap for each action you enable. Note that categories can be viewed by your clients!<\/p>\n<p>The rewards program also includes a new feature: contests.<\/p>\n<p>Contests allow you to create\u00a0separate leader boards with start and end dates,\u00a0in order to track the progression of your clients within a specific window of time &#8211; eliminating the need to either reset your leader board or take notes.<\/p>\n<h4>Appointment improvements<\/h4>\n<p>Appointment booking has been simplified and expanded to include more flexibility, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No end dates &#8211; appointments can be scheduled in perpetuity.<\/li>\n<li>client capacity &#8211; appointments can have set limits for number of people and can be scheduled by multiple clients independently.<\/li>\n<li>Conflict management &#8211; view conflicts in your scheduling and take immediate action to rectify them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-828\" style=\"width: 1128px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"embed wp-image-828 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts.png\" alt=\"Appointment conflict management\" width=\"1128\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts.png 1128w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-300x48.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-768x123.png 768w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-1024x163.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-920x147.png 920w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-600x96.png 600w, https:\/\/www.wellnessliving.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/appointmentconflicts-320x51.png 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1128px) 100vw, 1128px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-828\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Appointment conflict management<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Enrollments are now Events<\/h4>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be alarmed! In order to better serve a broader set of business types, we&#8217;ve renamed Enrollments to Events. These can be continued to be used in the same way &#8211; the functionality remains\u00a0the same besides the following powerful additions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All event sessions can now be booked automatically when the client purchases the enrollment, or left for clients to book manually at their own convenience. If left for clients to book, they can select sessions from other events or classes.<\/li>\n<li>Class and Event Purchase Options\u00a0have been merged &#8211; each purchase option has the ability to be applied to any combination of classes and events, providing the ultimate flexibility.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Attendance list icons<\/h4>\n<p>We&#8217;ve added a series of icons to the attendance list. Now you can tell if there is anything important to know\u00a0when it comes to the clients in your sessions: Whether its their first visit to your business, they owe your business money, have warnings on their account, or haven&#8217;t agreed to essential contracts or liability release forms &#8211; you&#8217;ll know all of this at a glance.
