Allow special Date Indication for Holidays, Closures, etc.

62 votes

We would like to be able to visually see on a calendar when certain things are happening such as a Holiday or Closure. We would not like to block the room off from scheduling per se, but having a reminder that something special is going on on that date. Perhaps a special indicator or message on a calendar /availability grid for that day?

This would be incredibly helpful as it is easy to forget holidays when scheduling multi-day events or when considering dates for events.

We have this as a Google Doc and Calendar currently and point users to check it before scheduling their activity. A built in tool would be much more efficient!

Oh man, I've wanted this "alert" system forever. It would be amazing if we could tag a date or location or both so that a pop-up would tell us if a date was a holiday or the location has a facility problem that doesn't stop it from being used but we might need to warn the client or any message that might be of importance (like an annual event that hasn't been booked yet but will need that location on that date).
Please please can we have this?

This would be super helpful for Ithaca College.

Crossing my fingers that this is added. Having to reach out to the scheduler to confirm if they meant to schedule a meeting on a holiday is tedious, especially when we don't always hear back!

It would be great if this could work like 'Exception Dates' , which our school uses with LYNX.
