What are packages

A package is a collection of specific count of a service. For instance if you have a service 15 minute Solo Walk and you have a package of 20 Solo Walks for 15 minutes.

Usually packages are offered at a discounted rate than the individual purchased services.

How do Packages work?

In DoTimely an admin can add  a package to the customer account and an Invoice for that package is created. When a service for which a package has been purchased is completed it reduces the package's balance and the service is added to the Invoice created for the package purchase.

You can also manually add or remove scheduled services from a package.
