Zero finish time

[TOnyaL]

I need to be able to have a color with process time then zero finish. The 5 minutes throws off our entire scheduling when someone else is cutting/finishing. I cant find a way around this while still having the process time needed to follow with the finish appointment but keeping the colorist schedule open after the initial application.

Hi @TOnyaL and thanks for reaching out with your question. I apologize, but I'm having a little trouble understanding exactly what the ask is here.

Before creating a service with processing time, here are some useful definitions:

• Initial duration is the time needed to set up before a service (e.g. applying color).

• Processing duration is the time needed to allow the initial step to set (e.g. waiting for color to process).

• Final duration is the time needed to complete service (e.g. rinse hair, apply treatment).

• Total duration of the service is a sum of all the above.
  
  For each service, or variation of a service, you can choose to add additional time to the total amount of time for the service for processing, and/or block extra time after the appointment. Based on what you've said, it sounds like you'd want to keep the processing time, but not block off any additional time after the appointment, so you could toggle that option off.
  
  
  
  I hope I've understood that correctly, but I'll also tag in some Square Champions, who also use Square Appointments, to offer their input: @cadresalon @tomven @JessPoynter @MALqueerhair
