Task: To set hours for a split shift.
Users might need to block out a portion of each day, or part of a day each week to have staff meetings, update inventory, or take care of other rhythm-of-business details. During these times, users might not want to schedule customer appointments. The Bookings app allows for that.
Assuming the business has meetings every Thursday from 1 to 2:30 and want to block out that time so all staff members can attend.

Step 2 - Select + to create a new row for Thursday.

Step 4 - Select Save.
Outcome
Hours of operation for split shifts are added to the business information page.
