Overview: What are we talking about?

In Gingr, you can optionally set a date (or dates) as Disabled for things like holidays, facility closures, etc. Disabling a date in the system will not allow a user (on the customer side or the business side of the app) to create a new reservation that has a start or end date that falls on the disabled date. 

This article includes:

 

 

Helpful Hints: Before you begin. 

  • This feature will still allow you to have reservations that span the disabled date. Ex. You are closed on Christmas day for pick up/drop off, but you will still allow dogs to board during that time.

  • Only members of the Admin user group are able to configure Disabled Dates.

  • Important: Disabled Dates apply to all reservation types and all locations in your app. Use Date-Specific Hours of Operation to close only a specific reservation type or location.

Disabled Dates in Action 

Disabled dates will show as a shade of gray on the New Reservation/New Appointment pages. Users (on the business and customer sides of the app) will not be able to click on the disabled date to make it the start or end date for the reservation/appointment.
