client appointment scheduler for my salon pos

[Roger]

I have made a salon POS database for my daughters shop and now find I need to
build a client appointment scheduler. I have searched for 3 days now and can
not find any examples or templates on how to do this. Can anyone point me in
the right direction to get started. I need a calandar with where I can list
employees and schedule clients and appointment type under them. Thank you for
anything you can suggest.

Thanks Arvin but I don't think thats it. What I need is basicaly an
appointment book where I can list the hair stylists (employees) and
time/date/customer name/and type of appointment under the employee names in a
time slot. I think what you pointed me to is for something like scheduling a
backup of the database at a certian time.

You might google these groups or even the web for things like
"Resource Scheduling" or "Scheduling Personnel and Shifts". There is
also a site:

www.simtel.com that has lots of demoware and shareware stuff. Some of
it is no good. Some of it is pretty good.

Your application is simple, but very customized to you.

An analogy is it's like writing a grocery list, and Access in the "pencil".
And instead of asking for help in how to make your list you asked if somebody
has your particular list already made for you.

If you want to do it yourself (and assuming that you have multiple
stylists), you'll need a table of clients (PK = Client ID) , a table of
stylists (PK = StylistID) and a table of appointments which has fields for
StylistID, ClientID, Date and Time, plus fields for any other
appointment-specific info that you want to track.
