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.
Paid booking
- 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.
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.
