Trying to delete a service and getting a message that it's part of a group service? Here's how to fix it.
Why this happens
When a service is added to a group service (a bundle of services sold together), Simple Salon keeps that link in place to protect your data. You'll see a message like this:
"Cannot delete service. This service is part of a group service: [group service name]. You must remove this service from the group service before it can be deleted."
How to fix it
- Go to Admin, then Services, and find the group service named in the message.
- Click Items next to the group service.
- Click Edit next to the service you want to remove.
- Click Delete and confirm. This only removes the service from the group, it doesn't delete the service itself.
- Go back to the individual service and click Delete again. It will delete normally now.
If the group service has already been deleted
If the group service is gone but the individual service still won't delete, the link may not have been fully cleared.
Contact Simple Salon support and let us know the name of the service you want to delete and the name of the group service it was part of. We can clear the link so you can delete it yourself, or delete it for you.
