What changed

What changed

  • Scale-plan studios can enable customer booking management from Settings -> Booking Rules.
  • Eligible customers can open their manage link or customer portal and choose a new date/time for the same space and duration.
  • Customers can also update simple active public extras that do not have staff, linked-space capacity, variants, choices, or separate add-on times.
  • Successful changes send dedicated booking-updated emails to both the customer and studio admin.

What changed

Built-in limits

  • The reschedule window is separate from the cancellation window, so studios can allow one action without allowing the other.
  • Changes that would increase the amount due are blocked in v1 and ask the customer to contact the studio.
  • Lower-value changes can be saved, but any refund or credit decision remains a studio/admin workflow for now.

What changed

Why this matters

  • Studios can move simple time-change requests out of chat and email.
  • Customers get a clear self-service option without letting payment deltas or complex operational add-ons change silently.
  • The updated booking remains the same StudioDock booking record, so internal booking lists, schedules, availability, and activity history stay aligned after refresh.
