Change request on the same day

Why can't I make a change request for a few hours within the same day?

Change requests are based on overnights. You have to use change request to make a change in your custody calendar. A change request cannot be done if the custody change affects the three next days. A pending change request can be deleted or edited by the creator only. An accepted change request can be deleted only if the custody change doesn't affect the three next days. If you want to change a few hours in a day, please use the "visitation" section. The Change Request feature streamlines the communication and approval process between co-parents. It is especially helpful for non-recurring scheduling changes or single-night modifications that don’t follow existing patterns.

Steps to Modify Individual Nights or One-Off Changes

  1. Navigate to the Calendar Section Open the 2houses app and go to the Calendar section.

  2. Initiate a Change Request

    • Locate the specific date for which you need to propose a change.

    • Select the "Change Request" option associated with the date.

  3. Specify Details of the Change Clearly outline the change you are requesting. For example, specify if the other parent will take the overnight.

  4. Submit the Change Request Send the change request. This ensures the proposed modification is documented and can be reviewed and accepted by the other parent.

Use Cases

  • Adjusting custody for a single night, such as when one parent needs to travel.

  • Accounting for unexpected scheduling conflicts.

  • Adding non-recurring overnights to the schedule.
