Staff time off
Mark when team members are unavailable — holidays, sick days, and personal leave.
Quick answer: On Team, open Team → Schedule for a bookable member, then add time off on the Time off tab. All-day or partial ranges remove that person's availability without closing the whole business.

- Team plan with at least one bookable staff member
Overview
Staff time off marks when an individual team member cannot take appointments — annual leave, training days, or a few hours out. Unlike business-wide closures, time off only affects the selected person. Their slots disappear from your booking page while colleagues may still be available.
- Per-person — other staff keep their availability
- All-day ranges or specific start/end times
- Optional label (e.g. Holiday, Sick)
- Shows on the calendar and in iCal feeds
