Find a Time — the best times by drive

Office web page → Schedule → Find a Time, and the Find a Time box at the bottom of every appointment.

How to use it on a call

1. Type the caller's address (on an appointment it's filled in) and how long the job takes.
2. Tap Find the Best Times. You get up to two weeks of open times, best first.
3. Each line says who's free, how close it is to a job already booked ("0.6 mi from Smith Home (9:00 AM)") and how much driving it adds ("+4 min driving"). Open day means nobody is booked that day yet.
4. On an appointment, tap Use — the date, time and tech fill in. Check it, then Schedule It.

How "best" is worked out

• Each tech's day starts and ends at the shop. A new job slipped between two nearby jobs adds only a few minutes; one across town adds a lot.
• There's always room for the drive and the time between jobs (Settings → Online Booking & Scheduling).
• Drive time is an estimate from distance (straight line × 1.3 for roads at your average speed, plus 5 minutes to park). It tells "around the corner" from "across town" — it isn't turn-by-turn directions.
• If the address can't be found on the map, you'll still get the earliest open times, just not ranked by drive.

Set it up once (owner or admin)

Settings → Online Booking & Scheduling: office hours for each day, time between jobs, the shop address (Put It on the Map), and who can be booked (techs, supervisors and Field Techs by default).
