How events(classes) work


The general logic of event(class) is creating Service + Provider related to it with dates selected in the settings of the event(class) as special days. When you use Classes custom feature the event creates service+provider related to it with identical name. In order to preserve proper functioning of the event on the dates needed, you should not delete provider with identical name related to event (but you can easily change his/her name) and should not disconnect provider from the event.

Events only



If you plan to have 1 event or several events without regular services you should do the following:

1. Close all company opening hours in Time settings // Company opening hours - use switcher to set it to off position
