How to set Specific Appointment times

[Nimsi]

Hi there I would like to set specific available appointment times. Is it possible customize it this specific? For example: 

Mondays available appointments would be: 

7am, 9am 11 am this gives me the exact amount of appointments I want to take in a day vs if I leave the option to book from this time to that time. It could limit the amount of appointments due to the time each appointment takes. 

I noticed if I have available times it gives incremental times vs specific slot times only. 

Thank you for your help

@Nimsi It is possible! 😁

You can edit the staff hours to have multiple windows of availability and by using the "According to service duration" setting. Here's what you're looking for:

 

You're able to add extra time windows using the plus sign icon on the right side of the screen. Going this route will allow you to set up your availability in increments!

Is there a way to make services available on specific days of the week? For example I need my Dinner Service to be available Friday's and Saturday's but I only need Brunch to be available on Sunday's.

This doe create time slots, although I think the customer can still book the the middle of the open slot, ie. : 7am-8:45 is open, but the client/customer can then select 8:00am and then expect the start to be 8 am and appointment to go for the, say 90 minutes that is ordered.  Or do these slots prevent that and an error message would be pushed back to the customer?

I want to use this to schedule 3 party slots for each day, 11am for 90 to 120 min, 2pm for 90- 120 mins, and 5pm for 90-120 mins. is there a way to prevent a booking say at noon?

How can I create set appointment slots? For example, I prefer having set time slots each day, so 10am, 12pm, 3pm, 5pm, I dont want a client to set a 11am appointment just because my 12 pm is opened online.

Hello! I am new to the square appointment software and I am wondering if there is a way that I can set specific times for clients to book appointments? For example on Monday's appointments appointment times would be 9:00am, 11:30am, 3:30am, 5:30am?

Thanks in Advance!
