# Confirming Appointments Manually

If you don’t utilize [text or email confirmations](/advanced-settings/appointment-confirmations-and-reminders.md), or for those who simply prefer to call their clients and personally confirm their appointments, manual confirmation works as so:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Start on your **Schedule** screen

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Click on the client's appointment

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Click the **Confirm** button on the right

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## If upon calling to confirm the appointment, the client does not answer, click **Left Message** to record your attempt to contact them!

![](https://support.rosysalonsoftware.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/rtaImage-Aug-19-2022-12-40-38-17-PM) ![left message](https://content.gitbook.com/content/Ba9JfhYBfqX7DMj8oNgV/blobs/ybSLYQmCvRRgCHZxHGnj/left%20message.jpg)
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## If you want to further note your attempt to contact the client for confirmation, we recommend adding an **Appointment Note** to record whether their mailbox is full, or if it's the wrong number, etc...

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Once confirmed, or left message, the client's appointment will change color to reflect the **Color Key** found on the left of your Schedule page.
