Adding Blocked Time for Grooming

Blocked time in Kennel Connection lets you mark when a groomer is unavailable for appointments, such as during a meeting or personal appointment. These blocks appear across grooming calendar views and warn staff about scheduling conflicts, helping everyone stay informed and avoid booking mistakes.

---

To set Blocked time, click on Grooming>Calendar.

You can view the grooming calendar by week, day or groomer view to add a block of time.

Note: adding blocks of time isn't available on the month view or the list view, however you can see the blocked times that already exist.
Example - Month View

Right click on a day or groomer name and hit Add Blocked Time.

It will always default to Masterlist and today's date so make sure you choose the employee, date, times and add a reason if desired. Hit OK.
