Scheduling Window for Future Absences

Use this makeup scheduling rule to determine when makeups can be scheduled for future absences. Allow makeups to be scheduled anytime for future absences, or use a scheduling window to prevent customers from scheduling a makeup for an absence that is scheduled for far in the future. The scheduling window refers to how far the date of the absence is from the current date.

Example

It is September 1:

Scheduling window for future absences 
= 1 week in the future
  • Customers can schedule makeups for absences that occur on or before September 8.
  • Makeups cannot be scheduled for absences that occur on September 9 or later.
Scheduling window for future absences 
= 1 month in the future
  • Customers can schedule makeups for absences that occur on or before October 1.
  • Makeups cannot be scheduled for absences that occur on October 2 or later.
