Vendor Admin Flow

The vendor admin is where a business runs day-to-day operations. Nimbus Wellness Studio is the demo tenant, and Maya Chen is the owner account. The current workspace includes booking operations, staff mobile actions, no-show control, calendar sync, AI operations, and scheduled reporting.

Admin Screenshots

Bookings admin page
Bookings is the operational ledger. It connects customer, staff, service, status, payment, and notes.
Calendar admin page
Calendar turns bookings into a schedule staff can actually work from.
Create service page
Create/edit pages are separate from index pages so setup is not crowded into tables.
Tenant settings page
Settings handles branding, currency rules, and limited vendor-safe controls.

Operations Proof Surfaces

SurfaceWhat the operator doesWhy it matters
No-show controlsMark a booking as no-show from admin or staff mobile when the customer misses the visit.Feeds no-show reports, customer risk signals, deposits, and retention decisions.
Calendar syncSend booking lifecycle events to an external calendar adapter when configured.Proves the booking schedule can leave BookFlow safely without rewriting local records.
Staff mobile flowUse the daily staff page for check-in, no-show, payment handoff, customer notes, and receptionist shortcuts.Keeps the working-day surface light enough for phone screens.
AI operations and recommendationsReview provider health, fallback mode, recommendations, report summaries, and receptionist drafts.Shows AI is assistive and auditable, not an unchecked auto-action layer.
Scheduled reportsCreate owner/admin report schedules and process due runs.Turns analytics into recurring operational review instead of one-off exports.
System proofPlatform admin reviews preflight, operations, update checks, and support bundles.Gives buyer/support teams install and runtime evidence.

Index Pages vs Create/Edit Pages

Index pages are for scanning, filtering, KPIs, charts, tables, and quick actions. Create/edit pages are for focused forms. This keeps vendor workflows clear: first find the item, then edit it on its own page.

Completed Booking Editing

Completed bookings are protected. A normal vendor should not silently rewrite completed history. Instead, a request is sent for approval. This protects receipts, reports, customer history, and audit logs.

Completed booking->Edit request->Admin review->Approve or reject->History stays controlled

No-show And Staff Mobile

No-show is a first-class operational state, not just a note. Admin, calendar, report, and staff mobile views use the same booking record so a no-show action can be reflected in reports, risk markers, and customer follow-up. Staff mobile keeps the same flow usable for the person working the day: see today's schedule, check in the customer, mark no-show, open payment handoff, read notes, and jump to receptionist context when needed.

Confirmations And Feedback

Vendor actions should follow the same interaction flow: Swal yes/no confirmation, Swal loading while the action runs, then toastr success/error feedback after completion. This keeps destructive or important actions understandable.

Detailed Screen Reference

For every admin KPI, chart, filter, table column, icon action, and create/edit field, use Vendor Admin Indexes Reference and Vendor Admin Forms Reference.
