Open Booking › Hours. Switch each day on or off and set its hours. For a day off or a holiday, click Add a date under Dates that differ. Then click Save in the bar at the bottom.

Also called: availability, working hours, opening hours, vacation, holiday, day off, time off, disponibilités, heures d'ouverture, congé, jour férié, vacances

Step 1: Open your hours

In Booking, click the Hours tab. My usual hours are open. The line under it says which appointment types use them.

Click: Booking › Hours

Step 2: Set each day

Switch a day on or off. A day that's off shows Unavailable. Click a time to change it, or + to add more hours the same day, like a lunch break in between.

Step 3: Add a day off

Under Dates that differ, click Add a date, pick the day and click Add a date again. It starts as Unavailable all day. Click Different hours to open it with other hours instead. A date replaces your usual hours that day.

Click: Add a date › the day › Add a date

Step 4: Save

The bar Unsaved changes shows at the bottom. Click Save, or Cancel to undo.

Click: Save

Good to know

  • New schedule makes other hours, for example summer hours. Pick them in an appointment type under Hours used, or click Make it my usual hours.

  • An appointment type can have Hours for this link only, under Availability in its editor. There you also choose how far ahead customers can book (7, 14, 30 or 60 days) and the minimum notice.

  • Limits and breaks in a type's More options adds a break before or after, and a limit per day or per week.

  • Your jobs and bookings block their times. Connect a calendar so its busy times block them too: see Calendars that block your times and click Connect or Manage.

If it doesn't work

  • "…: check the hours, each must end after it starts, without overlapping." Fix that day's hours.

  • "Each date can only be there once." That date is already in the list.

  • "That is your usual hours: make another schedule the usual one first." Pick another schedule, click Make it my usual hours, then delete this one.

  • "Google Calendar must be reconnected" shows. Click Reconnect: until then, a customer could book a time already taken in Google.
