A room is a space your salon books on its own: a private studio, a color bar, a treatment room. Each room gets its own column on the calendar, after your stylists, so you can see at a glance who is using it and when.

​
Set up your rooms

Owners and managers set up rooms in settings → scheduling → calendar → rooms.
  • add room to name a new one.
  • Drag a room by its handle to change the order. The calendar shows room columns in the same order.
  • Open … next to a room to rename or archive it.
  • booth renters can book decides whether booth renters may book their clients into that room. Turn it off to keep a room for the salon’s own team.
An archived room leaves the calendar and can’t be booked, and past visits in it keep their room. A room with upcoming appointments stays open until those visits move to another room or out of it; Sable tells you how many are left. Archived rooms are listed under archived rooms, where restore brings one back.

​
Rooms on the calendar

Room columns sit after the stylists in Day view, and after the stylists inside each day in Week view. Each room’s header shows a door in place of a photo.
  • A visit in a room shows in its stylist’s column with a small door mark, and in the room’s column with the client’s name, then the stylist and service.
  • Time in a room that you don’t have access to open shows as a grey booked block with only its times.
  • Room blocks show hatched, with their label.
The team menu on the calendar has a rooms section. Untick a room to hide its column; your choice is saved with the rest of your team selection. On a phone, pick a room in the team picker to see that room’s day.

​
Book into a room

  • Click or drag in a room’s column to start an appointment with that room already chosen. If you take bookings yourself, you are the stylist; you can pick someone else. Otherwise, choose a stylist before you book.
  • In the booking panel, Room picks a room for any appointment. No room is the default.
  • A service can always use the same room: open the service and choose its room. Adding that service to an appointment fills the room in.
  • Online booking offers a service that uses a room only at times the room is free.
If the room is already booked at that time, Sable asks before you double-book it, and names who has it when you can see that visit.

​
Move a visit into or out of a room

  • Drag a visit from a stylist’s column into a room’s column to put it in that room. The stylist stays the same.
  • Drag a visit within a room’s column to change its time, or to another room’s column to change the room.
  • To take a visit out of its room, open it, choose edit, and set room to no room.

​
Block time in a room

Owners and managers can block a room the same way they block a stylist: Add → Block time, then choose the room under who, or click or drag in the room’s column. A room block can be part of a day, all day, or repeat, and changing or removing a repeating one asks whether you mean this block, this and following blocks, or all blocks.

​
Booth renters and rooms

A booth renter sees every room’s column, and books into any room that has booth renters can book turned on. A room with it off still shows her its busy time, so she can see when it’s taken, and stays out of her room choices. Still stuck? Visit the Help Center to submit a support ticket.
