The Blocked Dates setup table allows you to prevent requesters from submitting requests for specific dates.
Blocked dates will show on the Trip Calendar in red as well. If users try to submit a trip in the specified date range, they will receive a message that trips are blocked for this date.
Configuring Blocked Dates
To set Blocked Dates, go to the half-person icon in the top right-hand corner of your screen. Click on Settings.
In the setting dropdown menu, select Trip Request Form then Dates & Times.
On the Dates & Times page, expand the Blocked Dates section.
Click + to start configuring blocked dates.
Set the Begin and End Dates that you would like blocked and add a description to help staff understand why these dates are blocked.
Select the Trip Types and Events affected by these blocked dates. Click Save once all changes are made.
Example from a Requester’s point of view:
Requesters trying to fill out a trip request that conflicts with your blocked dates will receive a warning message and will not be allowed to submit their request.
