So the next holiday or vacation is coming up and you need to block off your staff's calendar to not allow appointments to be booked in GROW. The below video will walk you through step by step how you can do this.
Option A:
Option B:
Block Off Time In A Calendar
You may want to block time out of your standard availability in your calendar, for a variety of reasons, including being away/out of office, or having something outside of your system scheduled during that time. Follow these simple steps to block off time in your calendar.
Step 1: Creating Blocked Time
Navigate to Calendars
Click into the calendar you wish to block time off for.
Click the date and time you wish to start blocking time as unavailable. A pop-up window will appear with 2 options:
Choose “Add Blocked Off Time”
Fill out the popup appropriately, including the timezone, start and end day/time, and a title/description too.
Click “Save Event” to add the blocked off time into your calendar.
NOTE: Blocking time is done on a user basis. You can block time off in the User Calendar for your own User. (User A cannot block off time for User B.) For example, I can block time off in My Calendar and the Teams Calendars I’ve been assigned to. I can view any of the other calendars, but can’t block time off for someone else in another calendar.
