This article covers how to create a block out in the calendar in Pabau. Block outs are used to block time off in the calendar. They can only be created within a shift, so make sure to first create a shift.
Step 1: Navigate to Calendar
Log in to your Pabau account, and in the left sidebar menu, click on Calendar.
Step 2: Choose Timeslot for Blockout
Click on the desired timeslot for the blockout.
Step 3: Select Blockout Type and Input Details
In the upper section, find your different Block out types. Click on the desired blockout type and input the blockout details.
The start time is based on the selected timeslot.
Each blockout type has a default duration, prepopulating the end time and duration field. You can adjust the duration as needed.
For an all-day meeting, use the "All day" toggle to cover the entire shift. Optionally, add a note with important information.
Step 4: Invite Participants
For meetings with other staff members, invite them from the right side of the menu.
Use the search bar to look them up and add them as guests. This duplicates the blockout on their shift. Skip this step if not applicable.
Step 5: Confirm and Book
At the bottom of the menu, click on Book to confirm. The blockout has now been successfully created.
NOTE: To create more blockout types, go to Setup, then click on Objects under Developer & Other, and finally, click on Block Out Options.
