How to Add Blackout Dates

Save a one-time or repeating blackout so unavailable dates appear in date warnings.

Blackouts mark dates when you are unavailable. They appear in lead, booking, and proposal date warnings.

  1. Open the blackout form

    Manage blackouts in Calendar:

    1. 1.

      Select Calendar in the main navigation.

    2. 2.

      Select Add Blackout.

  2. Describe the unavailable period

    Enter a name, Start date, and End date. The end date must be on or after the start. Add a Reason if needed.

  3. Create a one-time blackout

    Choose No under Repeats for a one-time trip, event, or closure.

  4. Create a repeating blackout

    Choose Monthly, Quarterly, or Yearly. Set Ends (optional) to stop on a date, or leave it blank to keep repeating.

  5. Save the blackout

    Select Create blackout and check the dates on Calendar, including repeat dates if you added them.

  6. Edit the warning behaviour later

    Open a blackout to edit its name, dates, reason, or repeat settings. Turn off Show availability warning to keep it on Calendar without flagging date conflicts.

Notes

  • Start and end dates are required, and the end date cannot be before the start date.
  • Blackouts warn users about availability; they do not cancel or modify an existing booking.
