Apply an Area to a Client

Modified on Wed, 28 Sep, 2022 at 2:05 PM

An "Area" is often defined as a geographic region or sub-region within your overall service area. Many companies define "Areas" by zip codes, town names or N, S, E, W of city center. Some clients use it for groups managed by different team members. This is helpful for marketing purposes or to schedule sitters efficiently, however it is not a requirement to use "Areas."

Applying an Area to a Client happens in Client Admin > Settings. Learn more about using using Areas here.

Tip: When you use Areas, you can do the following:
Run most reports by Area, including Revenue, Receipts and Schedule Stats.
Filter the Schedule by Area.
Filter Clients List by "area" and email clients in bulk.
Invoice by Area.

Note: Areas are created in Supporting Data, the same list is used to apply to Clients and to Staff.
