It includes options for creating and managing recurring schedules, blocking unavailable periods, and setting advanced booking rules. Here’s a breakdown of its components: --- ### **Schedules** The **Schedules** tab allows you to define the event duration, availability, and recurring schedule settings. #### **Event Duration**: - Configure how long each event lasts (e.g., 60 minutes, 2 hours, etc.). - Optionally, you can choose to hide event duration from the booking site and emails. #### **Event Availability**: - Choose from: - **Always recurring**: The event is available continuously based on the active days and time slots. - **Between selected dates**: Define a specific start and end date for the event’s availability. #### **Creating Recurring Schedules**: - Click **Create recurring schedule** to define specific time slots for each day of the week. - Use the **Copy availability from…** option to duplicate time slots from another schedule. - Customize time slots per day by adding, editing, or removing slots. - Use the **Options** menu to duplicate an entire schedule. ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-08-46-04-9503-PM.png?width=670&height=308&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-08-46-04-9503-PM.png) --- #### **Default Schedule Management** Each schedule includes options for managing time slots and availability: - Add or remove time slots for each day of the week. - Activate the **Call to Book** feature, which replaces online booking with a message instructing customers to contact you directly for that time slot. ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-05-39-2876-PM.png?width=670&height=407&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-05-39-2876-PM.png) --- ### **Closed Periods** The **Closed Periods** tab lets you define specific dates or time periods when bookings are not allowed. **Creating Closed Periods**: - Add a description (e.g., “Closed for holidays”). - Set a date range and time period during which the item is unavailable for booking. - Use this feature to prevent overlapping bookings or block out holidays and maintenance windows. ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-08-07-5501-PM.png?width=2604&height=962&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-08-07-5501-PM.png) --- ### **Advanced Settings** Advanced settings allow you to customize booking restrictions: #### **Minimum Booking Notice**: - Prevent last-minute bookings by setting how far in advance customers must book (e.g., 1 hour, 1 day, etc.). - Specify which days of the week the restriction applies to. - Enable the **Call to Book** option for time slots when the minimum notice period has passed. #### **Maximum Booking in Advance**: - Restrict how far in advance customers can make bookings (e.g., up to 12 months ahead). ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-08-54-6582-PM.png?width=2624&height=866&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-08-54-6582-PM.png) --- **Additional Features:** - **Duplicate Schedules**: Save time by duplicating an existing schedule and making minor adjustments. ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-12-37-4627-PM.png?width=1790&height=360&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-12-37-4627-PM.png) - **Call to Book Activation**: Use this option for time slots requiring manual booking approval. ![](https://info.resova.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-12-55-7232-PM.png?width=1480&height=324&name=image-png-Jan-14-2025-09-12-55-7232-PM.png) --- By effectively managing your schedules, closed periods, and advanced settings, you ensure a seamless booking experience while maintaining control over your item availability.
