Business Panel Overview


Accessing the Panel

yourdomain.com/manage

The Business Panel is the day-to-day workspace for every tenant. Owners, providers, and staff each see a view tailored to their role.

Required roles to access:

Role Badge Can Access
tenant_owner Owner Full panel — services, providers, staff, bookings, settings
provider Provider Bookings only (their own)
staff Staff Bookings only (all)
Business Panel dashboard showing booking stats, sidebar navigation, and quick-action buttons

Panel Sections

Section Who Can Access Purpose
Dashboard All roles Today's stats — confirmed, pending, cancelled bookings
Bookings All roles View, filter, create, and manage all bookings
Services Owner only Create and configure bookable services
Providers Owner only Manage provider profiles and working hours
Staff Owner only Manage staff accounts and access
Clients Owner only Client history, lifetime spend, top services
Notification Preferences All roles Per-user email and in-app notification opt-ins
Profile All roles Account details and password

{primary.fa-info-circle} Role-based visibility — Staff and Providers see a simplified sidebar. Sections like Services, Clients, and Settings are hidden entirely from their view — not read-only, just absent.


Navigation Badges

The sidebar shows live counts so staff always know what needs attention:

Nav Item Badge Shows Colour
Bookings Today's pending + confirmed bookings count Yellow
Clients Total distinct clients (unique by email) Blue

{success.fa-check-circle} Badges update in real time as bookings are created or status changes. No page refresh needed.


Public Booking Page

Every tenant gets a unique public URL for their customers:

https://yourdomain.com/{slug}

The {slug} is set when the business is created and must be unique across the platform.

What the booking page shows:

Customer visits /b/my-salon
        ↓
Browses active services (name, price, duration, image)
        ↓
Selects a service → chooses a provider
        ↓
Picks an available date and time slot
        ↓
Fills in name, email, phone, optional notes
        ↓
Free service → booking confirmed immediately
Paid service → redirected to Stripe Checkout
        ↓
Confirmation email sent with cancellation link

{warning.fa-exclamation-triangle} The booking page only works when the business has at least one active service with an active provider assigned. An empty business shows "not available" to customers.
