"Default" availability is for regular days clients can schedule appointments themselves.

You can add additional availabilities on specific dates or date ranges when you need an alternate schedule for things like summer hours, one-off days, holidays, vacation days, dentist appointments, etc and don't want to change your regular hours.

FAQ

  • Availabilities are not needed if you do not allow your clients to book their own appointments

  • Only staff with an admin role can setup staff booking times

  • To block time just remove your availability see below


Set Up/Changing Your Available Booking Times

  • Note: There is also a quick action Availability button you can access from the calendar, this feature is great for just one off times. if you have multiple staff members you must first select a staff member for the button to be visible

2. Under the Availability section, click "ADD AVAILABILITY" to create your default office

hours.
