To block only part of a service provider’s day in Rekaz, add a holiday of type Break, turn off Full Day, and set the start and end times. This prevents new bookings during the selected period.

  

Use Break for a short period when the service provider is unavailable, such as a rest period or another commitment. Review the date and times carefully before saving.

  

# Steps

1.  Open Beauty Experts and select Actions beside the provider.
    
    _The provider Actions menu opens._
    
2.  Select Add Holiday.
    
    _The Add Holiday dialog opens._
    
3.  Set Start Date and End Date for the blocked period.
    
    _The holiday date range is configured._
    
4.  Disable Full Day so that only part of the day is blocked.
    
    _Start-time and end-time controls become available for a partial-day absence._
    
5.  Choose Break as the Holiday Type and set the required start and end times.
    
    _The partial-day break is configured._
    
6.  Optionally enter a description, then select Save.

# Important notes

  

Choose Break when you need to block only part of a day, rather than record a full-day absence.

  

Check the date and times carefully before saving so that you do not block bookings outside the intended period.
