## Overview

Schedule Assist allows you to schedule technical meetings, on-site visits, and other appointments with your customers directly through the MSP Process PSA Pod. You can send customers a booking link from within a ticket, share a scheduling link outside of a ticket, or book an appointment on the spot.

## Pre-requisites

If you have not already setup ScheduleAssist, please review the [ScheduleAssist: Admin Setup](https://kb.mspprocess.com/msp-process/scheduleassist/scheduleassist-admin-setup.md) for further information.

Before using Schedule Assist, make sure the following pieces are in place:

1. Your team has company shared appointment types created (for example: support call, sales call, on-site visit, phone call) that any tech can assign.
2. Any techs who need their own appointment types have set them up in the MSP Process portal under Schedule Assist > Appointment Types.
3. Each tech is assigned to the company shared appointment types they need.
4. **A tech can only schedule a company-shared appointment type they have been assigned to.**

### **Creating a New Appointment Type**

1. Click **Add Appointment Type** in the top-right corner.

2. Fill out the form to describe the appointment.
3. If the appointment is for an on-site visit, consider adding a buffer before and/or after to allow travel time to and from the site.
