Some services do not run every week. A workshop happens once. A pop-up runs on three Saturdays. This guide shows how to offer a service only on the dates you choose.
Create the event
- On the Dashboard, click New Event or Service.
- Follow the steps. When you reach Set your availability, choose one:
- A one-off event — for one date and time.
- On a few specific days — for several dates.
- Finish the steps and click Create my calendar.
The app gives the event its own schedule, with the same name as the event. It fills the schedule with sample dates so you can see how it works:
- A one-off event adds one time, 9:00 AM, seven days from today.
- On a few specific days opens 9:00 AM–5:00 PM on the next three days.
Change these to your real dates before you share the event.
Set your real dates
- Click Availabilities in the app menu.
- Find the schedule with your event's name and click Set schedule.
- Scroll to Date overrides. The sample dates are in the list.
- Next to a sample date, click Delete.
- Under Pick the date(s) you're available, click Select Date Range and pick your event date.
- Set the start time and end time.
- Click Apply schedule.
- Repeat steps 5–7 for each extra date.
- Click Save changes.
Customers now see only these dates. The weekly schedule stays closed, so no other days show.
Add a date to an event you already have
Open the event's schedule and add a date as in steps 5–9 above. If the schedule is shared with other services, those services get the new date too. To avoid this, give the event its own schedule. See Set your weekly hours.
Stop sales before the event
To stop bookings a few hours or days before the event starts, set a lead time. See Control when customers can book.
