Blocked Time allows you to make yourself unavailable during a time that you have availability. Use repeating Blocked Time to add multiple blocked events at once.
For example, if you're going on vacation for a week, you can create one event and add it to every day during that week. Or, if you have a biweekly meeting during a set time, you can create one event and add it every two weeks.
To manage repeating Blocked Time for your staff profile, navigate to your:
- Personal Profile.
- Select My Schedule. Note: If you're connected to only one Business Profile and you're the only Staff, My Schedule will automatically direct you to the Business Schedule.
- Select to create a new block or manage an existing block.
- To create a new event select a date and time on the calendar and select Blocked Time.
- To edit an existing event select an existing block, then select Details.

- Use the date picker to change the Date if needed.
- Select the From dropdown menu to choose a start time.
- Select the To dropdown menu to choose an end time.

- Enter a quantity in Every for how often it repeats.
- Select the Day(s) / Week(s)/Month(s) dropdown to specify if the quantity is days or weeks.
- When Month(s) is selected, an additional drop down will appear that provides options for repeating the appointment on a specific week of the month, or a specific date of the month.
- Select the Ends dropdown to choose if the recurrence ends After X amount of events or a Specific Date.
- If After, enter a quantity in events. If Date, use the date picker to choose a date.
- Check which Businesses to apply the repeating time to.
- Add a Reason (optional).
- Select Save to add all events in the recurrence to the calendar and to return to My Schedule.
For example, if adding an event that happens every day for two weeks, enter Every "1" Day and Ends After "14" Days.
Alternatively, you can add repeating Blocked Time for any staff by navigating to your Business Profile > Schedule > Select a date and time on the schedule > Modify Availability > Block Time.
