# Create a service

_Step by step to register a service, with species, commission and the price table (by size & coat or by breed)._

> **💡 Tip**
>
> Put care into the **description** and keep **Show on PetBot** on: that way the **AI/chatbot** can offer and explain the service on WhatsApp, and the customer understands what they're buying.

**Services** are what you schedule, perform and charge for (bath, grooming, consultation…). They're organized by [category](/en/configuracao/cadastros/categorias/) and by **segment** (Pet Shop, Clinic, Daycare/Hotel). Here's how to add one.

## Step 1 — Open Services

Go to **Settings** (it will ask for the **admin password**) and, in the side menu, **Registers → Services**. At the top, pick the **segment** tab (Pet Shop, Clinic or Daycare/Hotel). Services appear **grouped by category** (Bath, Grooming, Moisturizing…).

## Step 2 — Open the category and click New service

Click the **category** where the service belongs (e.g. *Bath*) to **expand it** — the registered services appear and, at the end of the list, the **⊕ New service** button. Click it to open the form.

## Step 3 — Fill in the service data

In the **New service** form:
- **Service name** — how it shows on the calendar and on invoices;
- **Show on PetBot** (Yes/No) — whether the service is available for the WhatsApp [AI/chatbot](/en/configuracao/geral/recomendacao-de-servicos/) to offer;
- **Served species** — tick which [species](/en/configuracao/geral/especies-e-racas/) the service applies to;
- **Default commission (%)** — the professional's commission on this service;
- **Category** — the service's category;
- **Description** and **Guidance** — free text (the description helps the customer/AI; the guidance is an internal note).

## Step 4 — Set the prices

Further down is the **Price & Duration table**. Its format **depends on your store's billing mode** — by **size & coat** or by **breed**. See your case below (pick your type in the selector at the top of the article). This table is what [scheduling](/en/operacao/agenda/criar-um-agendamento/) uses to compute the price based on the pet.

## Step 5 — Save

Click **Save**. The service now appears inside the category and can be used in appointments and sales.

## Edit, reorder and move between categories

In the Services list, click a service to **edit it**. Use **Reorder** (on the category bar) to change the order they appear in, and **Change Category** to move services from one category to another.

## The price table according to your billing mode

### By size & coat
Your store charges **by size & coat**. The table has a **row for each combination** of **Size** (Micro, Small, Medium, Big, Giant) and **Coat** (Short, Medium, Long); in each row you set the **Value (R$)** and the **Duration**. Use **Default value** and **Default duration** to fill everything at once and then adjust what differs.

### By breed
Your store charges **by breed**. Instead of the size table, you'll see **Filter prices by breed**: you **select the breeds** and set the **price and duration for each one**. The **Default values** shortcut applies a base price to all breeds, and you adjust the exceptions. (This mode is set in [Billing parameters](/en/configuracao/geral/parametros-de-cobranca/).)
