# How to Add a Do Not Send Service Provider to a Client

In an ideal world every service experience would be spectacular regardless of which service provider was assigned. Since this isn't always the case in real life, you may find yourself wanting to make sure a service provider is not sent for assignments for a particular client. For this example, client Basil Jorgenson has let us know that she does not want service provider Sherryl Hage to be assigned to any of her appointments at the Acme Corporation.

Click on the pencil (edit) icon next to the client's name that you'd like to add the DNS service provider to.
