How to set up holidays
Updated over a week ago

Are you planning a vacation? Or the employee wants to go away for a week? Set up holidays in the calendar, and don't worry about a client making a booking for the day you're away.

You can find holidays management under the Business tab — Scheduling Holidays — Add holiday.

After clicking on the blue Add holiday button, fill in the following information:

  • First, fill in the name of the holiday, for example, “World cruise”.

  • Next, set the duration of the vacation in the From and to fields.

  • If you want the holiday to last for whole days, check the All day option.

  • Setting up short holidays within a specific day is also possible by defining the exact time range when the holiday starts and ends.

  • In the last field Staff, click on Edit to select the staff members to which the holidays apply.

  • Then click the Create button, and you can start packing for the holiday!

Where to find this setting in the Reservio Business app

You can also set up holidays in your mobile app. Click on the Settings icon in the bottom bar and select Holidays in the section Scheduling. Then click on the Create button and add the necessary details. In the end, don't forget to save your new holiday.

How does the feature of holidays work in the calendar?

  • Clients can't book services with a given staff member during the holiday period.

  • The holiday slots are visible in the calendar of the staff member.

  • If you want to change the holiday duration, click on the box with the given holiday either in the Holiday section or the calendar. In the same way, as you set them, you will also update the individual dates.

This feature is only available in the calendar for individual appointments. In the calendar for group events, clients book only for predefined events. So you simply do not create any new events during your holiday.

TIP: Do you need to adjust a staff member's schedule within a single day (for example, if they need to run for an examination at the doctor's)? Manage the schedule only of a specific staff member for individual days and hours. Click here for more information.
