Overview

Once a workflow is created, published, and made public, participants can access it. From here, users can send a booking request (also called an enrollment) to join the workflow.
Bookings are how participants gain access to a workflow’s steps and begin progressing through them.

Types of bookings

zyme supports three main types of bookings depending on how the workflow is configured:

Normal booking

  • The simplest type of booking.
  • Does not require manual confirmation.
  • Once requested, access is granted immediately, and the user can begin the workflow.
  • Requires payment before the booking is completed.
  • After sending the booking request, the user is redirected to a payment page.
  • Once payment is successful, the booking is confirmed, and access is granted.

Confirmation-required booking

  • Some workflows are set to require approval from the owner.
  • After sending a request, the booking remains in pending status until approved.
  • Once confirmed, the user gains access and can start progressing.

Login required

To send a booking request, users must be logged in to zyme. This is important because it ensures:
  • Progress through each workflow step is tracked accurately.
  • Feedback, ratings, and uploaded files are linked to the correct account.
  • Workflow owners can monitor client progress and engagement.
If a user is not logged in when submitting a booking request, the platform will prompt them to sign in or create an account first. Once authorized, the booking flow continues seamlessly from where it left off.

Booking limits and availability

Workflow preferences may include additional restrictions:
  • Availability windows – Bookings can only be made within specific start and end dates.
  • Limited spots – Some workflows have a maximum number of bookings allowed. Once filled, no more bookings are accepted unless waitlisting is enabled.
  • Waitlists – If enabled, users can join a waitlist once all spots are taken.
  • Private access links – Owners can create special links with usage limits, tokens, or expiry dates for restricted access.

What happens after booking

  • For normal bookings: access is granted immediately.
  • For paid bookings: the user completes payment first, then access is granted.
  • For confirmation-required bookings: the owner must approve before access is given.
Once confirmed, the user is enrolled in the workflow and can start progressing through each step.
