If you use GReminders Automated Scheduling<\/a> or include a cancellation link in your reminders<\/a>, you can control what happens with canceled appointments on your calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scenario #1 (Default)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Canceled<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When clients cancel their appointments with you using the cancelation link, you want the appointment to be deleted from your calendar, freeing up the time for another appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Link<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Under Host Settings<\/em><\/strong>, select Delete Event from Source Calendar when a cancellation link is used<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scenario #2<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Appointment<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When clients cancel their appointments, you want the appointment to remain on your calendar but see an X<\/strong> indicating that the appointment was canceled. Note: This will block that time on your calendar until you delete it or edit the event and mark it as Free<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Link<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Under Host Settings<\/em><\/strong>, select Mark event as Declined, but do not delete the Event from my Calendar<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Writeback<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Also, be sure that you have selected, Writeback Status Confirmation to Source Calendar checked. You can find this setting under Client Reminders>Settings<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In most cases, when a client cancels their appointment, there isn’t much need to confirm with a cancellation notification, but if you would like to include that as part of your process, learn how here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven’t tried GReminders yet, be sure to click on the Try it Free Today<\/strong> button on this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have any questions, you can contact us here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
