Configure bookable products within a specific period

Introduction

This tutorial explains how to configure products to be bookable within a certain period. This can be used for products that are only available for a certain time period or on a specific day.

Configuration

If you want to set up a page of products for a specific period, you need to create a separate page. After that, you will link this page to the new period you created.
To set this up, follow these steps:

1. Periods

1. Open the ‘Menu’ in the top right corner of the application and go to ‘Configuration’ -> ‘Periods’. You can see your current setup here.
2. If you want to add a new Period line, click on the ‘+’ icon on the top left (or copy an existing one with the ‘Copy’ button). You can give it a name and description.
3. Under ‘PeriodLines’, click on the ‘+’ icon and give the new Line a name.
4. Turn the ‘Next day’ button on.
5. Change the ‘Start’ and ‘Stop’ period if necessary. For example, if you have an Easter promotion, you can put the start and stop date of the Easter holidays.
6. You normally don’t need to change the ‘Start time’ and ‘Stop time’.
7. Below this, you can turn on the ‘Days’ and ‘Months’ buttons for the periods where you want it to be active. For example for a ‘Thursday promotion product’, you can turn the ‘Thursday’ button on and all of the Month buttons as well.
8. You can add more ‘Periodlines’ if necessary.

2. Pages

1. Next, go to ‘Products’ -> ‘Pages’
2. Copy or create a new Page. For more information go to this tutorial.
3. Double-click on the Page to open the settings. On the right side, go to the tab ‘Periods’.
4. Click on the checkbox next to the Period that you want to link it to.

In the video example below, we will create a new page for a product that is only bookable on Fridays.
