How to Enable or Disable Instant Book for a Locum as an Employer.

Use this guide to change a locum’s Instant Book status (globally or for specific locations).

Written by Stevie McIntyre

Before you start

  • Access is permissions-based. If you can’t edit locum settings, ask a Company Admin.
    ​
    ​

Steps

  1. Open People
    Go to People from the main navigation.
    ​

2. Show locums
Set User Type to Locum.
​
​

3. Find the locum
Search by name or email, or use + Add Filter to narrow results, then click the locum’s name to open their profile.
​
​

4. Open Settings
In the profile, select the Settings tab.

5. Update Instant Book

  • Use the Instant Book dropdown to choose: Not Set, Enabled, or Disabled.
    ​
    ​

  • (Optional) Disable at specific locations: open the location selector and choose the store(s) where Instant Book should be blocked.
    ​
    ​

6. Save
Click Save Changes (green).
​
​

Tips

  • Use Enabled only for locums you trust to self-book without review.
    ​
    ​

  • If issues arise at a store, keep Instant Book Enabled globally but disable at specific locations.
    ​
    ​

Troubleshooting

  • Can’t see Settings/Instant Book: You may lack permissions or be viewing the wrong profile type—confirm User Type = Locum.
