Add a Basic (One-Time) Block

1. Creating a single block

1. would be done when a Club would like to block Members from playing a Course or Tee at a certain time on a specific date.

1.  

2. To add a basic block

1. , type in the block title. This text will appear on both the pro shop and member tee sheets within the time slot.

2. Confirm Course to add block.  

3. Select the start date of the date to block.

1.  The system defaults to the day already loaded on the tee sheet, so it can be easier to 1st go to the day to block before opening the blocks window.

2. Enter the 1st and last time(s) to block.

1. The clock icon can be used to select a 30 min interval. For other intervals

1. type in the time. The box is intelligent, meaning you can type in many ways such as “1310” or “110pm” for 1:10pm, or “832” for 8:32am. In other words you don’t need the “:”, or “am/pm”.

2. To complete the block, click the

1. Add Blocked

1. Time button at the bottom-right.

2. Once added, the Block Title will be visible on both the Admin and Member Tee Sheets, and will not allow Members to book during the block.

2. If a Club desires to block a Tee or Group of Tees (rather than an entire course), click on the

1. Select

1. Specific Holes option, and designate the Tees to block (one or many).

2. Also note it is possible to control/change how the Tee Times will appear on the Tee Sheet by utilizing the

1. Styling

1. tab.

1.  The Background and Text Color of how the Block appears on the Tee sheet can be edited here.

Add a Recurring Block (Block Series)

1. The frequency setting is used to set recurring blocks called a series. For example, Tuesday Men’s league could be set up as a weekly block series.

1. The end date is often important for recurring blocks but it isn’t required. A block series can be set to extend until the pro shop removes the series.  Check the

1. Select end date?

1. option to open and populate the

1. End Date field.  Click

1. Add Blocked

1. Time when finished.

2. To edit a block series

1. , remove the series and then re-

1. add it.

Use Block Templates - Choose Booking Rules

 A standard block simply closes the time so members cannot book. However, blocks can be used for more than just closing the time.  By adjusting the block template setting, they can also be used to adjust who can book or what tee times are on the sheet.

1. Adjust Start Times - “Hidden from All” Template

1. : Seasonal start times can be controlled using blocks. This can also be done with the schedules for more advanced tee sheet configurations.

2. Manage Group Sign Ups

1. : Blocks can be also used for basic event sign ups. For example, a “Women Only” block can be set to recur weekly on Tues 8am-10am. This would allow only male golfers to book the tee times.

Shortcut to “Copy” Blocks

Sometimes similar blocks are needed throughout the month or year but not on a regular frequency. For these cases a shortcut may be used to copy blocks, requiring only a quick change to the date.

1. Add a blockwhich takes you to the

1. View Blocks tab to see the newly created block.

1. Click the

1. Add/Edit
