# Calendar Availability

Set your weekly calendar availability and override specific days for vacations or time off in PaintScout.

Calendar availability in PaintScout controls when you can be booked for sales events, estimates, and appointments. Set your weekly hours and override specific days for vacations or time off.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Important:** this feature requires the paid **Operations add-on.**
{% endhint %}

## How Do I Set My Weekly Availability?

1. Go to your **Profile**.
2. Select **Calendar** > **Availability**.
3. Set your **weekly availability settings** by choosing the days and times you’re available to take appointments.

## How Do I Override Specific Days?

Need to take a vacation day or block off a specific date? You can override your weekly settings:

* Select the date you want to update.
* Mark yourself as **Unavailable** (or adjust the hours for that day).

## What Happens When I'm Unavailable?

If you set yourself as unavailable:

* You **won’t be able to take bookings** for those dates or times.
* Sales events cannot be scheduled during your blocked-off hours.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Pro tip:** Keep your availability updated regularly so teammates and customers can always book you at the right times.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.paintscout.com/support/operations/events-and-calendar/calendar-availability.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
