Block out dates in your Calendar

Posted by getSoapy on 6th February 2026 in What's New . Last updated: 6th February 2026

You can now block out dates in your Calendar, handy for holidays, van servicing days, or those chunky jobs that take a day or more.

Blocked dates show up highlighted in the Calendar, and if you try to schedule work on one, you'll get a warning (you can still go ahead if you really need to).

You've got two options to block a date:

  • In Calendar, open the menu and choose Add a blocked date
  • When you schedule a job, toggle Block date on

If suggested jobs fall on a blocked date, they'll be moved forward to the next available date. If they have schedule constraints, such as a day of the week or week of the month, they'll be moved to the next available date that matches the constraint.

This is another of our most requested features, so thanks for the nudges, and keep the feedback coming!

This is included in the Advanced and Pro plans.
