Block slots and areas

  • Last updated:

If a hook is broken, a rack is occupied or an area is closed today, you block the slots concerned. tapcoat no longer assigns blocked slots and areas at check-in. The block applies immediately to new check-ins.

Blocking slots and areas is included depending on your plan. If it isn’t enabled, the dashboard shows The option “Disabled slots & areas” is not available right now. Saved blocks take effect again as soon as the feature is enabled. Only people with the Manager role can block slots.
