Block time & add time off

Requirements

  • Available on: All plans
  • Device access: Web & mobile browser
  • Permission: Owner or Manager

Stop bookings from landing when you're not available. Use a Personal Block for short interruptions like lunch or training, and Time Off for a staff member's vacation, sick day, or personal day.

How to add a personal block

  1. On the Calendar, click New Booking (or click the empty slot you want to block) to open the event drawer.

  2. Set Event type to Personal Block. The event drawer with Personal Block selected

    <!-- CAPTURE: route=/calendar | login=owner | state=event drawer, Personal Block selected | highlight=Event type selector | viewport=1440x900 -->

  3. Give the block a name (for example, "Staff lunch" or "Training"), then set the Start date and End date.

  4. Under Who's blocked, choose Salon-wide to block every provider, or One staff member to block just that person while the rest of the team stays bookable. The personal block form with name, dates, and the Who's blocked options

    <!-- CAPTURE: route=/calendar | login=owner | state=personal block form filled | highlight=Who's blocked options | viewport=1440x900 -->

  5. If you have multiple locations, leave Apply to all locations off to block just this location, or turn it on to block every location. Add a Reason if you like, then save.

Note: Blocks stop new bookings during that window — they don't move or cancel appointments that are already on the calendar. Handle existing bookings separately if needed.

How to add time off

  1. Open the event drawer and set Event type to Day Off / Time Off. The event drawer with Day Off / Time Off selected

    <!-- CAPTURE: route=/calendar | login=owner | state=event drawer, Time Off selected | highlight=Event type selector | viewport=1440x900 -->

  2. Pick the Staff member and a Type — Vacation, Sick, Personal, Unpaid, or Other.

  3. Set the Start date and End date. Leave All day on for full days off, or turn it off to set Start and End times for a partial day. The time off form with staff, type, dates, and the All day toggle

    <!-- CAPTURE: route=/calendar | login=owner | state=time off form filled | highlight=All day toggle | viewport=1440x900 -->

  4. Add a Reason if you'd like, then click Submit time off. That staff member becomes unavailable for booking — online and in-app — for the period.

Tip: Staff can also view and manage their own time off from My Schedule. See Manage time off.
