Block Time Availability on your PracticeQ Calendar

If your PracticeQ calendar is linked to your Google or Outlook Calendar, the blocked time on those calendars will show as blocked on your PracticeQ calendar. But if you simply want to block time availability inside PracticeQ, follow the steps below.

1. Click Bookings.
2. Click Block Time.
3. In the Block Time dialog, complete the fields with the necessary information.
4. You may block all locations or single locations, all services or single services, and set it to repeat every day, every weekday, weekly, or every other week. This can be used to support many scenarios! For example, a provider who works every other Thursday can set up their Thursday hours, and then block every other Thursday by choosing the Every other week option.
5. Click Save to add the blocked time to your calendar.

Edit Recurring Blocked Time Slots

• To edit blocked time slots, click on any block of the series in the calendar.
• The Block Time dialog will open, allowing you to modify the blocked time settings.

Move Individual Blocked Time

• Move an individual blocked time slot by simply dragging and dropping, as shown in the animation below.

Delete Blocked Time

If you have blocked time and wish to delete that block and reopen the time for bookings, the process is very simple!

1. Click on the specific time block that you wish to remove.
2. For a single time block, click the orange Delete button in the Block Time dialog.
3. For a series of blocked time slots, click the orange Delete button to remove the entire series.
4. To delete individual blocks of a series, click the arrow on the right side of the orange Delete button, then select Delete Individual Block.

Team Calendar

• You can also block availability for your team members by using the Team Calendar. 
• When blocking a time in the Team Calendar, you can select the practitioner you are blocking time for, or choose the All practitioners option to block time for all practitioners.

• When you block a time slot for the whole team, it will show up in the Team Calendar, and in all individual calendars, as a dark gray block.
