Set collective closures for a location

Who can do this: Admins or Location Managers with edit permissions
Where: OfficeAdmin > Locations

Collective closures block all reservations at a location for a specific date and time window (or the entire day). Use this for company events, maintenance, holidays, or safety drills. When a collective closure is active, users can’t book any assets in that location during the closed period.

Steps

  1. Go to Locations and open the location you want to configure.
  2. Click Edit, then open the Opening Hours tab.
  3. Under Collective closures, pick a date.
  4. Choose the Start time and End time for the closure. You can add multiple closure windows on the same date if needed.
  5. Click Add to create the closure.
  6. Repeat for additional dates, then click Save.

How it works

• Overrides availability: Collective closures override the location’s default hours and any custom hours for that date.
• Applies to all assets: Assets inside the location are not bookable during the closure window—even if an asset has different hours.
• Existing bookings: Review existing reservations that fall inside a new closure and reschedule or cancel as needed.
• Timezone and format: Times use your organisation’s timezone in 24-hour format.

Examples

• Company-wide meeting: 12 October, 09:00–11:30 closed.
• Maintenance: 18 November, 14:00–18:00 closed.
• Holiday: 25 December, closed all day.

Tips and troubleshooting

• Multiple days: Add a separate closure for each date.
• Can’t add a closure? Check your permissions for the location.
• Overlap: If you add overlapping closures, the system treats the combined window as closed.
• Need to reopen a period? Remove or edit the closure entry for that date and time, then Save.
