Mobile Locations

ClickBook now collects customer address details for services that are marked as being "Client Site / Mobile".

The Client Address for such bookings is included in all notifications, reminders and calendar feeds (iCal).

Custom location can also be marked to collect the Client Address.  This feature allows more flexibility for service providers that offer mobile services in different districts depending on the day. In order to achieve this, you must create multiple custom locations with names that are appropriate to the district (eg. "Melbourne Metropolitan Area" and "Mornington Peninsula").  Then, instead of selecting "Customer Site/Mobile" in the service locations, you select the appropriate custom locations.

As with other details in Client Files, when Clients update address details in their profiles, address details are also updated in your Client Files.

Tip: In the Weekly Availability preferences, it's important to select the "+Mobile" tickbox on days that you wish to provide Mobile services.
