What are date exceptions?

Date exceptions allow you to temporarily adjust your normal weekly availability for a specific date.

They override your standard schedule, but only for that particular day.


Positive override (extra or adjusted availability)

Use a date exception to:

  • Be available only in the morning

  • Add availability on a normally unavailable day

  • Set different working hours for a specific date

Example:
Normally, you are available all day on Wednesdays.
On Wednesday, January 11, you only want to work from 13:00 – 17:00.
You add a date exception with that specific time block.

You can also use this approach by setting your weekly schedule to unavailable and opening specific dates only through date exceptions.


Negative override (block a day)

Want to block a specific day entirely?

  • Add a date exception

  • Mark the date as unavailable

This is useful for:

  • Holidays

  • Public holidays

  • Sick leave

  • Training days


Important: relation to calendar integration

Date exceptions do not override your connected external calendar (such as Google or Outlook).

The calendar integration ensures that existing appointments are visible in Trackler.
The Scheduler then checks:

  1. Your configured availability

  2. Your date exceptions

  3. Your Trackler calendar

If your external calendar already contains bookings, those time slots remain blocked.


When should you use date exceptions?

  • For temporary changes in your schedule

  • During vacation periods

  • For occasional extra availability

  • When you want to adjust a single specific date

Date exceptions give you flexibility without modifying your entire weekly schedule.
