INTRODUCTION
Feature Summary: Scheduling Restrictions control which lesson types and event categories each instructor is allowed to teach. Checking a box for an instructor makes that instructor bookable for that offering; leaving it unchecked hides the instructor from that option during booking.
Use Cases:
Limit an instructor to only the lesson types they are qualified to teach
Prevent members from booking an instructor for a format they don't offer, such as group lessons or clinics
Keep instructor availability accurate as new lesson types or event categories are added
OVERVIEW
Scheduling Restrictions determine which lesson types and event categories appear as bookable for each instructor. System users check a box in an instructor's column to assign that offering to them. If no boxes are checked for an instructor, that instructor won't appear as an option for any offering until restrictions are assigned.
Offerings are grouped by type, such as Lesson Types and Event Categories, with each instructor listed in its own column.
Note: System users should configure Scheduling Restrictions and Instructor Pricing before members can book lessons. If needed, create any relevant revenue categories in advance as well.
NAVIGATION
Go to Settings > Instructor Settings.
Click the Scheduling Restrictions icon.
SETTINGS
Assign scheduling restrictions
Click the Scheduling Restriction tab.
Go to the TYPE column to view the active lesson types and event categories. This column is grouped into two sections: Lesson Types at the top and Event Categories below it.
Check the box for each offering that an instructor teaches, under that instructor's column.
Click Save Changes.
Repeat this process for each instructor. An instructor can be assigned to as many or as few offerings as needed, and restrictions can be updated at any time as instructor qualifications change.
