Configure Minimum Booking Notice and Customer Availability

Set how soon before a Meeting customers may book, understand the exact hour/day conversion, and verify that too-soon or unavailable Meeting Times are excluded from customer selection.

Set the Notice Window

On the Scheduling-enabled Plan, set Minimum booking notice as a number of Hours or Days. QCMM converts the value to minutes. One day is exactly 24 hours from the current time; it is not interpreted as the next calendar day.

How the Cutoff Is Applied

Customer availability begins at the current UTC time plus the Plan's minimum notice. Meeting Times starting before that cutoff are not offered for a new booking. The same minimum-notice rule is checked again when QCMM acquires a checkout hold, so an appointment that becomes too close while the customer is browsing cannot be reserved.

Other Availability Requirements

A customer-visible Meeting Time must also be open, within the booking horizon, have remaining effective capacity, belong to an enabled Host and Host-to-Plan assignment, and belong to a Scheduling-enabled non-archived published Plan for a new purchase. QCMM also evaluates customer conflict rules and any customer-specific blocked original occurrence.

Rescheduling

Customer rescheduling also enforces the Plan's minimum booking notice. A replacement Meeting Time inside the cutoff is rejected even if it otherwise has capacity.
