Schedulista is designed to support a regular weekly work schedule, but you are able to adjust your availability by day and block time out of your schedule. You can manage your availability through the web dashboard, as well as the Schedulista mobile app.

You can set a regular work schedule to define your work hours for each day of the week you need to be available. You can also set and adjust your regular schedule through the mobile app.

Once your availability is set, you can define appointment times during your work hours on the Scheduling Policies page in settings.

Note about work hours

Work hours are your range of availability and not necessarily your business hours of operation. Clients do not see your work hours on the scheduler. They see available appointment times based on your set work hours.

For example, your office hours might be 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, but you might regularly take an appointment at 5:00 pm that lasts past your office hours. You'll want to set your work hours to support the appointment time and the duration of that appointment.

If you offer a 5:00 pm appointment time for a 1 hour service, you'll want to set your work hours to end at 6:00 pm.

You can set Flex time daily overrides to adjust work hours on specific days without affecting your regular work schedule, as well as take days off or make days available that your regularly have off.
