How Do Notice Periods, Booking Windows, and Daily Limits Work?

1 min read

Minimum Notice #

Minimum notice is the shortest gap allowed between the moment of booking and the start of the meeting. With four hours of notice set, a slot at 14:00 stops being bookable at 10:00. This guarantees preparation time and prevents surprise meetings appearing minutes ahead.

Booking Window #

The booking window limits how far into the future invitees may schedule. Two forms are supported:

  • Rolling window — a number of days ahead, for example the next sixty days, which advances daily.
  • Fixed range — explicit start and end dates, useful for a campaign or a hiring round that closes.

Frequency Limits #

Frequency limits cap how many bookings may be created per day, per week, or per month. A limit of four meetings per day stops the fifth booking even when the calendar is otherwise clear. Limits can be applied to a single event type or across every event type you own, which is the stricter and usually more useful option.

Duration Limits #

Duration limits cap total booked minutes rather than the count of meetings. Six hours per day permits twelve thirty-minute calls or six hour-long sessions, whichever mix occurs, and is the better control when your event types have very different lengths.

Interaction Order #

Restrictions are applied in a fixed sequence: working hours, then date overrides, then connected calendar conflicts, then buffers, then minimum notice, then booking window, then frequency and duration limits. A slot must survive every step to appear. When troubleshooting a missing slot, walk the list in that order.

When Everything Is Filtered Out #

If no slots remain, the page displays a message inviting the visitor to check later dates rather than an empty grid. You can customise this message per event type.
