Businesses (Tenants)

Tenant Fields

Each business record stores the following:

Field Description
Business Name Displayed on the public booking page header
Slug URL identifier — the booking page is at /{slug}
Owner The linked user account (must have tenant_owner role)
Subscription Plan Which plan this tenant is on
Status Active or Suspended
Currency Used for display on the booking page
Timezone Business-specific timezone for scheduling
Logo Appears on the public booking page and in emails

{warning.fa-link} The slug must be unique platform-wide. Changing it after launch breaks all existing client bookmarks and shared links.

Admin — Businesses list showing tenant name, owner, plan, status, and action buttons

Managing Tenants

From the Admin → Businesses list, each row provides these actions:

Action Description
Edit Update business details, owner, or subscription plan
View Booking Page Opens their public /{slug} page in a new tab
Impersonate Owner Log in as the tenant owner to debug their Business Panel
Suspend Disables the tenant — booking page shows an "unavailable" message
Reactivate Re-enables a suspended tenant
Delete Permanently removes the tenant and all their data

{danger.fa-ban} Delete is irreversible. It permanently removes all services, providers, bookings, and client records for that tenant. Always confirm with the business owner before deleting.

Self-Registration Flow

When a new business registers via /register:

  1. They fill in business name, slug, email, password, and choose a plan
  2. Free plan → tenant is provisioned immediately, redirected to Business Panel
  3. Paid plan → redirected to Stripe Checkout
  4. Payment succeeds → Stripe sends checkout.session.completed webhook
  5. Slotara receives the webhook → provisions the tenant automatically
  6. Super admin receives a notification (if new_registration preference is enabled)
  7. Business owner receives a welcome email
Register → Stripe Checkout → Webhook → Tenant Provisioned → Business Panel

{warning.fa-exclamation-triangle} If a paid-plan tenant is not provisioned after payment, check Admin → Activity Logs for webhook errors. Verify your Stripe Webhook Signing Secret matches in both Stripe Dashboard and Admin → Settings → Payments.

Suspending a Tenant

Suspending a tenant:

  • Makes their public booking page unavailable (clients see a message)
  • Does not delete any data
  • Does not log out the tenant owner (they can still see their panel but cannot serve clients)

Reactivating restores everything immediately — no re-provisioning needed.

{primary.fa-pause-circle} Use suspension instead of deletion for late payments or temporary closures. Data is preserved and the tenant can be reactivated instantly.
