Summary
This article describes how to schedule business closures and schedule employee time offs.
Content
Occasionally, you'll want to close your business for holidays or team events, and your employees will need time off when they're sick, on vacation, or unavailable for other reasons. You can schedule time off from the Microsoft Bookings calendar, and the employee will be unavailable for bookings during the specified time. Once the business reopens or employees return to work, everyone will be listed on the booking page according to their established work hours.
