Steps to add a date override

1

Access Your Availability Settings

  • Log in to your Cal.com account.
  • Navigate to Availability in the sidebar.
2

Click 'Add an Override'

  • In the Availability page, look for the “Add an Override” button.
3

Choose the Date

  • A calendar will appear. Select the specific date for the override (e.g., Wednesday).
4

Set the Override Preferences

  • Adjust your availability for that day:
  • Mark yourself as completely unavailable, or
  • Specify custom hours for that date.
5

Save the Override

  • Once you’ve configured the override, save it.
  • Your new override will appear in the list of availability adjustments.

How overrides work

  • Temporary Changes: Overrides apply only to the selected date and will not affect your recurring availability schedule.

  • Automatic Archiving: After the override date passes, it will be archived and no longer visible. This keeps your availability settings tidy.

Why use overrides?

  • Take the day off for personal reasons.

  • Adjust availability for holidays or special events.

  • Handle one-off schedule changes without altering your entire weekly setup.
