Creating One-Off Classes, Appointments, or Courses

Creating a one-off class, appointment, or course gives you the flexibility to handle special cases without changing the regular schedule. It's perfect for situations that are outside the normal routine. Here are a few scenarios where creating one-off sessions is useful:

• Pop-up or Seasonal Events: Host special classes, holiday sessions, or themed workshops without changing your recurring schedule.

• Intro or Trial Classes: Offer free or limited-time sessions to attract and convert new customers.

• Testing New Offerings: Experiment with new class types, time slots, or formats to gauge interest before making them recurring.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a One-Off Class

1. Access the Calendar: Head to the calendar and click on "Add Event". Here, you can add a one-off appointment, class, or course session.

2. Setup Requirements: Ensure you have created the appointment, class schedule, or course under setup before proceeding.

3. Select Class: From the drop-down, choose the class you want to create a one-off session for. You'll see a list of all your existing class schedules.

4. Choose Instructor and Facility: Select the instructor and facility, the date of the one-off session, and the start and end time.

5. Define Recurrence:

   • You can create a one-off session that doesn't repeat or one that repeats for a specific period.

   • For example, if you pick daily, you can define when the recurrence ends.

   • You can set it to repeat every week on the same day or every month on the last occurrence of that day.

   • The system automatically determines the day based on the date you select.

   • You can also choose to have a custom recurrence and define the conditions.

6. Finalize Settings: Once you're happy with the settings, click on "Proceed to Availability". If there are no conflicts, click on "Add Class".

7. Review and Confirm: The one-off class will be added to the calendar and will be visible on the website and app for customers to book. This is a detached event, meaning any updates in the class schedule will not impact this one-off class.

Creating One-Off Course Sessions

You can create one-off course sessions in the same way:

1. Update the details and click on "Add Course Instance".

2. If there are any conflicts with instructor or facility availability, they'll be highlighted for your review. This is just a warning and won't block you from creating the session.

3. You can either adjust the date and time or check the box to ignore the warning and proceed.

4. Click on "Add Course", and it will be added to your calendar.

That's how you create one-off classes, appointments, or courses to help handle unique situations, promotions, or experiments without disrupting your existing schedule or recurring events.
