Life happens and our best laid plans sometimes need to be changed - no problem! With Fons providers can easily cancel and reschedule appointments as needed.
FAQs about Cancelling and Rescheduling Appointments
You can cancel or reschedule a single appointment or a recurring series of appointments
You can't cancel past appointments
The system will note the appointment was cancelled by a staff member.
The client will not be charged for any appointments cancelled by staff.
As a provider cancelling an appointment overrides your cancellation policy and will NOT charge the client.
To Cancel an Appointment
Login to Fons and navigate to the appointment you would like to cancel.
If it is a recurring appointment you can cancel the entire series by toggling the switch at the top (so it is green). If you just need to cancel the one appointment leave it greyed out.
Click on the "Cancel" button. Once you click cancel you can add an optional note and it will notify your client via email and within the To-Do area in the app.
Note: If you do not see the "cancel" button check the date of the appointment you are trying to edit...you are not able to cancel appointments that have already passed.
To Reschedule an Appointment
Things To Note When Rescheduling

If it is a recurring appointment you can reschedule the entire series by toggling the switch at the top (so it is green) or just the one by leaving it greyed out.
