📌 Note: You must have Scheduling Settings permissions to set up provider schedules for your clinic. Refer to Modifying a user's permissions.
After you create off time/vacation templates for your clinic (refer to Creating templates to block time off), you can apply them to any date(s) and provider(s). You can apply the templates to more than one provider's schedule at a time.
For example, if a provider is taking a week of vacation, apply a weekly vacation template to their schedule for the applicable week. Or, if you have a standing meeting that takes place on a weekly basis or if you want to block time off for lunch breaks or administrative tasks, you can apply a template to multiple provider schedules.
