What this guide covers
Learn who can open Admin, what each top tab is for, and whether to set up your studio first or run day-to-day operations.
Before you start
- A Taktics studio account after platform signup
- Admin access for your login (granted when you subscribe as a studio owner; not the same as studio admin in Brand → Team)
Step by step
- Sign in, then open Admin from your studio site (URL ends with
/admin). - Admin opens on Schedule, in its Today view. On a computer the tabs run down the left edge, each icon with its name under it, and Help sits at the bottom. On a phone or tablet they're a bar along the bottom of the screen: Schedule, Payments, Customers, Brand and Emails (on a tablet Analytics too). On a phone, Analytics and Help are at the top right, beside the light/dark switch. Hold ⌘ (Mac) or Ctrl and click a tab to open it in a new browser tab. Use the tabs:
- Schedule: schedule and edit classes or appointments. Switch views with the buttons at the top left: Today, Calendar, List and Card.
- Today: today's sessions with who is booked, who arrived, and how each person paid. Mark Arrived or No-show, and tap Mark paid when someone pays at the desk or pays the rest after a deposit. People who checked themselves in show ✓ Self or ✓ Kiosk; tap to undo. The Locations, Types and Staff filters narrow the day. To look at another day, use Calendar, List or Card.
- Customers: everyone who books with you, who needs attention, and imports
- Brand: name, theme, landing page, domains
- Emails: campaigns and automated messages
- Payments: catalog, Stripe Connect, gift cards
- Analytics: metrics (may be limited to platform operators)
- Schedule: schedule and edit classes or appointments. Switch views with the buttons at the top left: Today, Calendar, List and Card.
- Before you add many sessions, set up Brand and Payments so booking and Shop look correct.
- Run the day from Schedule → Today, and the week from the other Schedule views and Customers.
