Maurice Walker Asked:
“Is there a way to have my calendar available for only two weeks at a time vs. the whole month? I prefer people not to book out so far in advance.”
The Answer:
Yes, you can adjust your calendar settings in Agent CRM to limit availability to only two weeks at a time. This feature helps you maintain control over your schedule and prevents bookings too far in advance. Here’s how to make this change.
Step-by-Step Guide to Adjust Calendar Date Range
1. Navigate to Calendar Settings
- Log in to your Agent CRM account.
- Go to Settings >> Calendars.
2. Select the Calendar to Edit
- Locate the specific calendar you want to modify and click Edit.
3. Adjust the Date Range
- In the calendar settings, look for the Date Range or Booking Window option.
- Set the booking availability to 14 days (2 weeks) from the current date.
4. Save Your Changes
- Once the date range is updated, click Save to apply the new settings.
5. Test Your Calendar
- Preview your calendar to ensure that availability is restricted to the next two weeks.
Why Limit Calendar Availability?
- Prevent Last-Minute Changes: Limiting the booking window ensures a manageable schedule.
- Encourage Timely Engagement: Leads are more likely to commit to near-term appointments.
- Maintain Flexibility: Avoid over-committing to future dates that might later conflict with your availability.
