# phone.saveVoiceJobType

Add or change a job type the voice agent may book: name (what callers ask for, like AC tune-up), minutes, buffer_minutes (default the shop buffer), max_per_day, person_ids (the workers who may take it; empty means any worker) and deposit_minor. fixed_fee_minor and fixed_fee_label (like 8900 and diagnostic fee) set the one price the agent may say for it when offering times; leave it null and the agent says no price. A job type with a deposit is never booked straight in: the agent takes the time and the office confirms. Owner or office.

## When to use it

The shop's voice agent can book callers straight onto a worker's calendar, but only when the owner sets booking_mode live with phone.setVoiceAi. It is off by default.

## What to tell the owner

Say what you did in plain words and what happens next.
