Default fields apply to all existing meeting types in your entire organization, as well as any newly created meeting types. You can either create Text or Checkbox fields depending on what info you want to gather. If you delete a field, it will be removed from every meeting type. Users will see these fields by default in all meeting types, and will have the options to make them required for their end-user to fill out, or remove them from a meeting type (explained below).
Users can configure the scheduler form for each meeting type. When editing or creating a new meeting type, users will see the default fields that you have configured for them. They have the options of removing any field (besides for Name and Email), or adding any custom (optional) field. Users can also make any of these fields required for their end-user to fill out.
Click on the edit button (below) and then edit the fields!
Note: Users are able to configure their Scheduler form per Meeting Type, but the configurations only apply to when they are using their Groove Scheduler Link. If they are using the "Add Specific Times" feature, the Meeting Types are used as a template, and therefore not tied directly to the Meeting Type or form within that Meeting Type. For the "Add Specific Times" feature, all Default Fields will show up in the form for the end user to fill out.
Round Robin Groups
*This feature currently applies only to G-Suite customers
The Round Robin feature will help you maintain your team's flexibility by allowing customers to choose a time with any available member of your team, as well as evenly distributing meetings across your team. It’s great for connecting:
-
Leads with sales reps for intro calls and demos
-
New or existing customers with someone with the customer success or support teams
-
Connecting candidates with recruiters for phone screenings
Evenly Distributed Meetings:
When using Round Robin Groups, Groove will take the availability of all users in that group and present it to the prospect or customer. When they choose a time, Groove will find the subset of users who are available, then select the user with the lowest number of meetings in the group this month. If multiple users have the joint lowest amount, Groove will randomly select a user whose calendar to put the meeting on. This way, meetings are assigned evenly across the team, and in addition, the meeting counts for each group reset each month.
Adding a User to an Existing Group:
Since Round Robin Groups logic uses meeting counts on a monthly rotation, if a new user is added in the middle of a month, the logic will be reset at the time the user is added and all users in the group will have a fresh start in meetings counted from that point on until the end of the month.
Note: The meeting count totals for existing users in that month will not reset.
