Held slots
When a series ends, its weekly slot does not go straight back on the calendar. The studio keeps it held for the same renter for a set number of days, so they can renew it before another renter books it.
In this section
A hold keeps the time; it does not book it. After the series’ last session there is nothing on the calendar: no bookings, no invoice, no charge. The hold does one thing — it stops every other renter from booking that weekday and that time. A studio admin can still book a one-off session at that time; other staff can’t.
The held weeks show on the calendar as hatched blocks on the series’ own slot. They are not bookings, and they never turn into bookings.
- Renew the series, and the new series takes the slot over: the hold moves to it and those weeks become real bookings again.
- Release the hold, and the slot is open to everyone from that moment. Bookings that already exist do not change — releasing cancels nothing and refunds nothing.
- Do neither, and the hold ends by itself the day the studio’s days run out. The slot is free again.
ExampleThursdays, 6–8 p.m.
A duo has had Thursdays 6–8 p.m. all winter. Their last session is March 26, and this studio holds a finished slot for 14 days.
- Until April 9, no other renter can book Thursday 6–8 p.m., on any date.
- Renewing on April 2 gives the duo their Thursday back, and the hold moves to the new series.
- Releasing it on April 2 instead opens that Thursday to everyone the same day. The winter’s sessions stay exactly as they are.
- Doing nothing frees the slot after April 9, so Thursday April 16 is the first one anyone can book. Nobody has to remember the date.
A hold covers one slot, for one series. It costs nothing, it never charges a card, and it books nothing — renewing is what creates the next stretch of sessions.
