Add a blockout when you're away

A blockout marks time you're not available. Whoever schedules sees your reason when adding people, and OnStage warns them before they pick you.

Steps​

Add a blockout​

  1. On Home, click Schedule at the top right of the week card.
  2. Click the first day you're away.
  3. Click New blockout, or Add blockout under the day's items.
  4. Type a Reason, such as "family trip". Your team sees it.
  5. Set Starts and Ends. All day is on; turn it off to pick times.
  6. Click Add.

Good to know​

  • A reason can be up to 150 characters. Add stays greyed out until there's a reason and the dates make sense.
  • An end before the start shows End date must be after start date.
  • Two of your blockouts can't overlap: There is already a blockout created in the specified time interval.
  • You can pick dates from today to 365 days ahead. A day that has passed has no New blockout.
