Dependent Blocks
Step-By-Step:
Step 1: Navigate to Settings, then click on Activity Center from the left-hand-side menu, followed by the Activity Resource tab along the top row.
Step 2: Click on Dependent Blocks under Action for which resource you wish to edit. This will generate a Dependent Blocks pop-up window.
Step 3: To create a new block, click Add. Then you will fill out Block Rate Type, Resource Type, and Resource. Then click Save.
Example: A Tennis Instructor gives lessons on Clay Courts and Grass Courts. In this example, the Facility has four resources that need to be addressed:
1. Instructor (Clay Courts)
2. Instructor (Grass Courts)
3. Clay Court 1
4. Grass Court 1
When a customer books a Clay Court lesson online at 11 AM, the system would automatically block off: The Clay Court Resource - The Clay Court Lesson Resource.
Now, it can also block additional Dependencies: The Grass Court Instructor resource - The Grass Court 1 resource.
Blocking all of these resources ensures that no other customers can book the Grass Court Instructor or Grass Court 1 during the same 11 AM timeslot booked for the Clay Court lesson.
