It's important to add in any existing bookings you have for upcoming dates. This is to ensure that when you publish your site that these days and times can't be booked by someone else. There are three ways this can be done depending on whether you'd like to send email notifications to your customer and volume of bookings.

Include the customers name and service in the Title field, and ensure you make a comment about whether or not payment is required in the description and include any other details such as phone number and/or email address.

This will not create a record of the booking or send the customer a notification.
