How to close walk-ins for today

Use this when you’re done taking walk-ins today: you’re running late, someone went home, or it’s near closing.

Close walk-ins

  1. On Today’s Console, tap Close for today. On a narrow phone it’s the moon button.
  2. If nobody is waiting, tap Close walk-ins.
  3. If people are still waiting, choose what happens to them.

If people are waiting, the two choices are:

  • Keep serving them: they keep their place, and you serve them as usual.
  • Cancel their check-ins: their tickets say walk-ins closed for today.

New check-ins stop right away either way. Tap Go back if you change your mind before choosing.

Opening again

Walk-ins open again only when someone taps I’m here on their My Day, today or the next day. Someone simply finishing a visit and becoming available again doesn’t reopen them.

Closing for the day isn’t shutting down

This only stops today’s walk-ins. Your storefront, settings and records stay as they are.
