Are you going to be busy during a time that's normally marked available? Here's a quick solution for how you can block that time from showing up on your Appointlet scheduler.

To schedule a break, simply add an event to your calendar (recurring if desired) that spans the time you would like to block out. This will prevent your clients from scheduling events at that time. For a vacation you can do the same by ensuring the event is busy and spans the full length of your vacation.

Important: Any events you create to block out your availability schedule must be added to an Availability Calendar so Appointlet knows where to look for the busy events.
​
​To check which calendar(s) you've selected as your Meetings Calendar(s), navigate to the Calendars tab of the Availability menu.

Open the Google Calendar you've set as an Availability Calendar and select the date you'd like to block out. This will open a window where you can create a calendar event. Select the start and end time to block a specific span of hours, or check the "all day" box to block out the entire day.
​
​Important: The calendar event must be marked busy in order to block out the overlapping time slots in Appointlet. Free events will have no impact on your Appointlet availability schedule.

To set a busy event in Office, select the date on your calendar that you would like to block off. In the window that appears, you can change the time frame on the right hand side. But most importantly, be sure mark the event busy via the top navigation bar.

You can block out specific dates and times directly within Appointlet if you'd prefer not to use calendar events. It's as easy as marking the dates you don't want to receive bookings "unavailable" using either the Seasonal Hours or Date-Specific Hours availability tools. These same concepts apply to both your member schedules, and custom availability in a specific meeting type.
