Set the scheduling policy

The first thing to consider in the customizing process is the scheduling policy. Time increments, minimum lead time and maximum lead time are the main aspects here. Time increments can be set from 15 minutes to 4 hours as required. Minimum lead time is all about how much time your staff or concerned person required to prepare for the appointment. Set this time, so that you will get enough time to make the appointment fruitful for both parties.

Email notifications, page theme, and logo

Select the email notification option to know whenever someone creates or edit a booking. The staff member who will be appearing for the appointment will be automatically notified in this case. You can display the available staff members and let the user decide with whom they want to schedule an appointment. The color theme and logo can also be set up for the booking page.

This will help you make the appointments more meaningful and productive. Several companies are providing services by dedicated SharePoint experts to customize Office 365.
