The Summer of Packages 

User beta testing for our new Session Packages feature is in full swing! 🎉 Catch up on the latest AthletaDesk updates, including a look at what’s included with Session Packages. 

With Session Packages you can expect the following exciting updates: 

  • Sell a package with a specific value of time that your clients can use towards private sessions, group sessions& more! 
  • Ability to create package templates for your commonly sold session packages 
  • Track your package time automatically and see how much is left 
  • Brand new Packages icon in the left side menu 
  • Brand new “Trainers & Packages” section in the client profile with balance & activity, and package info listed in the trainer profile 
  • Ability to add packages while assigning trainers or adding a new client
  • Package is now an option in Accounts & Invoices under “Add Transaction” 
  • Send an invoice for a package immediately after assigning it to a client
  • Client Portal homepage displays current outstanding package balance 

Trainers & Staff

  • The Assigned Trainers table now refreshes right away after unassigning a trainer. What you see is what you get! 
  • If a trainer doesn’t have any clients assigned yet, the default session settings set for their first client will automatically become the trainer’s Initial Session Settings. One less thing to set up manually! 
  • Choosing Don’t Save when closing the Edit Trainer Profile drawer now closes things up cleanly instead of leaving errors behind like confetti after the party. 
  • Fixed an issue where updating trainer privileges could incorrectly tell you that your changes weren’t saved, even though they were. No more false alarms! 

 Client Management

  • Adding a new client just got a little smoother, with new prompts along the way to quickly assign a trainer and add their first session to the Calendar. 
  • Client profile photos are now automatically resized to fit neatly inside their profile image container. No more breaking out of frame. 
  • Fixed an issue that was preventing inactive accounts from being selected when adding a new client. 
  • You can now search the Client List for clients who don’t have a trainer assigned without an error appearing. 
  • We’ve renamed Options to Actions for bulk actions. A tiny change that makes things just a little more obvious. 
  • The Number of Clients column has returned to Client Tags. The count is back, baby! 

Calendar & Attendance

  • Adding a session and realize you haven’t added the client yet? You can now create a new client directly from the Client/Attendees field in the Quick-Add Session and Add New Event drawers. 
  • When changing the trainer on a Calendar event, clients who aren’t assigned to the new trainer will now be cleared from the drop-down instead of sticking around just to give you an error later. 
  • We’ve made it easier for AthletaDesk to handle two clients with the same name attending the same session. No more identity crisis! 
  • Clicking on a Calendar event now shows a handy icon when notes are attached so you can spot them at a glance, no digging required! 
  • The prompt to convert a cancelled session to an Open Session Slot will now only appear if your business offers Client Portal booking or has a Book from Calendar form active, because an open slot isn’t very useful if nobody can book it! 
  • Fixed an issue where Quick-Add Session weekly holds in the future were displaying warnings that the event was happening in the past. No time travel required here. 
  • Fixed an issue where the Hold this weekly time slot confirmation button could get stuck loading… and loading… and loading. 
  • Deleted Calendar categories will no longer come back to haunt the Update Session Settings drop-down, even if they’ve been used in the past. 

Billing & Invoicing

  • Images pasted into manually sent invoice emails now show up as intended. Picture perfect! 
  • Backdated tax changes will now recalculate taxes without unexpectedly reapplying the client’s default pricing. Taxes: yes. Surprise pricing: no. 

Website Builder

  • Fixed an issue where the Widgets Configuration page temporarily went MIA. It’s back where it belongs! 
  • Sign-up forms no longer freeze when adding a second client. Siblings may now coexist peacefully. 
  • Required custom fields on website forms no longer auto-fill and submit as “Not Provided.” Forms have been reminded that “required” means required. 

General/Other

  • Adding more trainers to your AthletaDesk membership now automatically refreshes your account to include the Trainers & Staff page right away. No refresh button required! 
  • Social Links have packed their bags and moved from Website Builder to Business Settings, making them easier for everyone to find and manage 
  • Zapier’s Attendance Taken trigger now works correctly when a session is cancelled through the Client Portal. 
  • The checkbox to overwrite an existing custom email template now does exactly what it says on the tin without freezing along the way. 
  • Enabling two-factor authentication from My Profile no longer freezes the page. Security without the suspense! 
  • When browsing Online Resources from the Client Portal, your browser’s Back button now takes you to the page you were actually just on instead of sending you all the way Home. 
  • Various cosmetic tweaks throughout. ✨
