How to Add Training Appointments Using Special Services or Other Services

 

KC Cloud does not currently have a dedicated Training Module, so you will need to choose how you’d like to track training appointments in the system.

You have two main options:


Option 1: Use Special Services

This allows you to create standalone training appointments.

Good for:

  • One-on-one sessions
  • Staff-managed bookings

Keep in mind:

  • Special Services do not appear in the Client Portal
  • Clients cannot book these online
  • Recurring appointments are not supported
  • If a class meets weekly for say 3 months, you will need to create each appointment individually (for example, 12 separate appointments)

Option 2: Use Other Services (Attached to Boarding or Daycare)

You can create a Training “Other Service” and attach it to a Boarding or Daycare appointment.

Good for:

  • Resident training (pets already boarding)
  • Allowing clients to book online

Keep in mind:

  • Clients must select Boarding or Daycare to book training
  • The appointment will not be labeled specifically as “Training”
  • Reports will show all Other Services together (you cannot filter just training)
  • The invoice will include a Boarding or Daycare line — do not remove it, but you can zero it out if needed

What’s Easiest?

  • Resident training: Add it as an Other Service to the boarding stay
  • One-on-one sessions: Either option works
  • Long recurring classes: Special Services can be used, but each appointment must be created individually
