Manage Unavailability
Learn about how Resources can manage their Unavailability within Maica
What does the Manage Unavailability Tool do?
Maica supports the management of Unavailability records which essentially mark any given Resource as not available for inclusion into an Appointment or Shift.
The Manage Unavailability Tool essentially allows you to manage and create these records directly from the Planner, as demonstrated below.
Maica offers the ability to either create a single Unavailability for any given Resource or multiple at the same time by simply adding multiple Resources into the Resources(s)
input.
Creating a new Unavailability Record
To create a new Unavailability record, simply click on the Unavailability
icon in Maica's Planner, select the + New
button and complete the fields as per the below screenshot.
