Set up Google Reserve | Before going live
Google Reserve connects FrontOffice+ Self-Scheduling with a practice's Google Business Profile, so patients can book appointments through Google Search and Google Maps. You continue to manage availability and scheduling rules in FrontOffice+, and you can configure Google Reserve separately for each office or location.
Set up Google Reserve
Turn on Self-Scheduling
- Go to Self-Scheduling Workflows.
- Confirm Self-Scheduling is turned on.
Turn on Google Business Profile Sync
- Under Self-Scheduling settings, turn on Google Business Profile Sync.
- This turns on the connection used for booking through Google Maps and the Google Business Profile.
Select the location
- Go to Locations (Offices).
- Find the office that should be available through Google.
- Select Show under Additional Settings to open the location-specific configuration.
Turn on Google Reserve
- Turn on Google Reserve for the selected location.
- Repeat the configuration for each location that should offer booking through Google. You can only use one FrontOffice+ link or hashtag per Google Business Page.
