ONBOARDING PT CLIENTS

This article shows how to add existing PT clients into Fisikal, taking into consideration credits and bookings.

Note: You can only start to onboard PT clients if the system is fully set up and operational, all clients are loaded into the system, services, packages and billing systems are all configured as well.

 

This article describes the process to add historic packages to clients and to load future sessions.

This process assumes that your client data is already loaded into Fisikal.

  • enterprise customers usually do not have to add any Client profiles into the system, as they are already be synchronised from their membership management system.
  • if you do need to load client data before onboarding then use this topic: How to import your client list using Zapier

 

OVERVIEW

Collect your data on the current credit balance for each of your clients, analyse that and then make a manual change to each of your clients to add the correct package, adjust the remaining balance and move any existing appointments into Fisikal.

 

 

Prepare your data

We recommend that you document all of the important information onto an Excel file so that you can keep track of the information and have something to reference when loading this information onto the system. Please click HERE to download a template file.

You will need to record the following information:

  • Client name or Alt ID (so you can look them up easily)
  • Title of the last package they purchased
  • Date they last paid for the package
  • The amount they paid for the last package
  • Go-live credit balance
  • Future bookings for this package
  • Credit balance after all future bookings are applied

NOTE: when calculating the GO-LIVE CREDIT BALANCE value, this will as at the day that you go-live with your bookings for your clients. So if you decide you go-live on Mon 03 Jan for example, you may have existing sessions between now and then. You will need to know what your credit balance will be on the GO-LIVE date. This will take into consideration any past sessions that you have delivered that you have NOT added into the software. We are only interested in recording sessions that were billed and the credit that was deducted from the package balance.

The GO-LIVE CREDIT BALANCE should also take into consideration time as well. So if you are going live on Mon 03 January at 09:00 and your client has a session at 17:00 on the same day. Your GO-LIVE CREDIT BALANCE will take into consideration all sessions that have occurred before 09:00 on Mon 03 January. So the 17:00 session will be deducted from the GO-LIVE BALANCE. 

In the example below, Audrey purchases a 10 pack of PT for £600 on Monday 06 December. She has her first session that afternoon at 16:00 - which means after that she has 9 sessions left in this package. 

NUMBER DATE & TIME REMAINING CREDITS
SESSION 1 Mon 06 Dec, 16:00 9
SESSION 2 Wed 08 Dec, 16:00 8
SESSION 3 Mon 13 Dec, 16:00 7
SESSION 4 Wed 15 Dec, 16:00 6
SESSION 5 Mon 03 Jan, 16:00 5
SESSION 6 Mon 03 Jan, 16:00 4
SESSION 7 Wed 05 Jan, 16:00 3
SESSION 8 Fri 07 Jan, 16:00 2
SESSION 9 Mon 10 Jan, 16:00 1
SESSION 10 Wed 12 Jan, 16:00 0

The GO-LIVE date is set for Mon 03 Jan at 09:00. So the GO-LIVE BALANCE will show 6 remaining credits.

The first session to be recorded in the software will be Mon 03 Jan, 16:00. This will be the 5th session in the package and after this has been booked, Audrey will have 5 remaining credits in this package.

Do remember to take into account the TIME & DATE of the legacy appointments, as this will make it clear how many credits you have to adjust on their package.
