✨ When You Need This Guide

Use this article when:

  • Your clinic hours are changing permanently or temporarily

  • You’re revising open/close times for scheduling

  • You want to ensure patients only book during available hours

Related scenarios this solves:

  • “We’re now opening earlier on Thursdays.”

  • “We’re no longer open on Fridays—how do I update that in Aloha?”


✅ How to Adjust Default Business Hours

Option 1: Drag & Drop

  1. Go to Scheduling > Settings

  2. On the calendar below, you’ll see your current default schedule highlighted in blue.

  3. To Add Time Blocks:

    • Click and drag the section of time you want to make available.

    • Start by clicking the beginning time, then drag down to your desired end time.

    • You can verify the time by checking the bottom-right corner of your screen.

  4. To Remove Time Blocks:

    • Hover over the blue section you’d like to remove

    • Click and drag up or down over the blue block

    • When the block turns white, that time is no longer available

  5. Once your hours look correct, scroll down and click “Save Defaults”

    • If you forget to save, changes won’t apply.

Option 2: Manual Input

  1. Go to the Scheduling > Settings

  2. In the top-right corner, choose Manual Input:

  3. Enter your office hours by typing them in.

    • You can add additional time blocks (ex: if your office closes for lunch).
      ​

  4. After setting your hours, click SAVE SETTINGS at the bottom of the page


💡 Pro Tip

If you're closing for a holiday or provider PTO, use Aloha’s Holiday/Vacation Hours instead—these override your default hours just for the selected date(s).


🧠 You’ll Know It Worked When:

  • Your default calendar shows your updated schedule in blue

  • Patients can only schedule during newly available hours

  • Removed hours no longer appear as bookable online
