Setting up block types

A block type is the reason shown whenever you block out time — Lunch, Annual leave, Training. Setting these up first makes blocking time quick and keeps the calendar consistent across your team.

Add a block type

Go to your settings and open Unavailable block types, then add a new one. Give it a name, a default duration to save time when it's used, and a colour so it's recognisable on the calendar.

The block type form with name, duration, and colour fields.

Retiring a block type

Archive a block type you no longer use. Existing blocks that used it are unaffected; it just won't be offered for new ones.
