Lena's intro calls, kept in check

Lena runs 30-minute intro calls from Berlin and wants gaps, warning and a cap. Follow three settings from the Limits & buffers tab to the times Clara can book.

Limits & buffers

Keep 15 minutes free after each call

Lena sets After event to 15 minutes. Bookers can no longer pick a time that starts within 15 minutes of a call ending, or ends within 15 minutes of the next one.

Limits & buffers

No bookings at the last minute

She raises Minimum notice from 2 to 4 hours. At 09:40, the first time anyone can book today is 14:00.

Limits & buffers

Two intro calls a day, at most

She turns on Limit booking frequency and sets 2 per day. Once a day holds two intro calls, the booking page treats it as full.

Booking page

Clara sees only the times that fit

Thursday already has Martin and Pieter, so it's greyed out. On Friday, 10:30 and 11:30 are gone because they'd touch Reilly's 11:00 call and its buffer. Clara picks 12:00.

Calendar

Two days with room to breathe

Clara's call lands half an hour after Reilly's, the 15 minutes after it stay free, and Thursday stops at two calls.

Change the limits, watch the times

Clara opens Lena's link at 09:40 on Thursday. Change the buffer, the notice and the daily cap, and her Thursday and Friday recompute the way Cal.com works them out.

After event
Minimum notice
Limit booking frequency

Clara can book 9 times on Thursday and 15 on Friday. Nothing starts before 11:40 today.
