Specifying your operating hours means clients won't be able to book appointments with you when you're not available. Your AppointmentGuru account will have default operating hours added when your account is created (8 am-5 pm) but you may want to change this. For example, you might not want to take appointments on a Monday morning and instead use the time to prepare for the week.

Your operating hours shouldn't change week-to-week. If there are ad hoc time slots that you don't want to be booked by clients, you can block off that time through the appointment creation process.

Steps to complete:

1. Log into your AppointmentGuru account, click on Settings and then Spaces.
2. In the block for the space in which you want to change operating hours:
   1. Scroll down to locations and expand the relevant location by clicking on it
   2. In the block where it says "operating hours" expand the relevant practitioner and click the edit button to change operating hours
   3. Should you want to add different hours for different days, click on Add hours on that particular day.
