\u00a0 if no availability information has been entered yet. Availability allows you to define which day(s) of the week this appointment column should be available.
\nNote: this will determine the availability of appointments in your diary, not the availability in Vetstoria. The Vetstoria availability will be defined separately but does depend on the availability in Animana, so that is why this needs to be defined first.

<\/li>\n- Start selecting the start and end times for the availability for the specified appointment column. Also, make sure to select the right day\u00a0for this availability.

More about this<\/h1>\n
What does a booked Vetstoria appointment look like?<\/h2>\n
When a\u00a0client selects a time slot in the online booking system, a „reserved slot“ will be created\u00a0in Animana. You will not be able to reserve that slot for another client on the phone or at the counter. Once the client confirms his booking in the online booking system, the appointment will appear in Animana. Any appointment booked online is shown with a Vetstoria sign in the right upper corner.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/help.animana.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/img_5ab8b1c9393fe.png\")
\nIf the client is recognised in your client database, it will automatically link to that contact. If the client is not recognised in the database, it will say \u201cnew client\u201d in place of the name. In this situation, the client\u2019s name will be in the notes. The screenshot above shows three possible scenarios:<\/p>\n- \n
- Online Vetstoria booking: new client<\/li>\n
- Online Vetstoria booking: successfully linked to an existing client<\/li>\n
- Normal booking<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Can a client edit and cancel Vetstoria appointments?<\/h2>\n
Upon creating their appointment, the client will receive a confirmation email with a link to edit or cancel the appointment. Every time the client edits or cancels via the link in the email, Animana will be updated and the client will receive a confirmation again.<\/p>\n
What do I need to set up if I want clients to make appointments with a particular vet?<\/h2>\n
With Vetstoria, a client is able to make an appointment with a particular vet. This can be made available by assigning a work schedule to the vet by following the instructions in this article<\/a>. Contact Vetstoria once the work schedule has been set up, so they can enable the functionality on their end.<\/p>\n
