Direct answer

Open Dashboard → Bookings, select the appointment, and update it to the status that reflects reality: pending, confirmed, cancelled, or completed.

  1. 1. Open Bookings

    Go to the Bookings area of the business dashboard.

  2. 2. Review the request

    Check the service, customer, any selected date or time, any flexible-request details, and the relevant direct conversation before changing status.

  3. 3. Set the current status

    Use pending while a request awaits a decision, confirmed when accepted, cancelled when it will not happen, and completed after delivery.

  4. 4. Communicate material changes

    Use the direct customer conversation to explain a cancellation, timing change, or information the customer needs.

  5. 5. Keep records current

    Update the status promptly instead of leaving finished or cancelled appointments as confirmed.
