Slot blocking — a closed hour, without inventing a fake client
Block a slot to close it to booking, without creating a fictitious appointment.
The problem
Closing an hour — a break, something unexpected — often requires inventing a fake appointment to fill the slot.
A fake client clutters the statistics and can, by mistake, receive a notification that makes no sense.
Blocking closes the slot without creating a client, without a notification, and without entering the revenue.
Without Kagenda
To close an hour, you have to create a fake appointment with an invented client.
With Kagenda
