# External Schedule

{% hint style="info" %}
Only users with this permission can access External Schedule: **"User can access service open hours".**
{% endhint %}

In the [**Admin Portal**](https://admin.gobossit.com/), navigate to **Timing > External Schedule**.

External Schedule allows venues to define their service operational hours. These hours apply to online platforms (Web/App) and integrations (except Deliveroo). It can be configured on a daily basis, allowing different operating schedules throughout the week.

* Monday to Sunday: Individual day configuration
* Time Format: 24-hour format (e.g., 09:00 - 22:00)

## Setting Daily Hours

For each day of the week, you can:

* Set opening time and set closing time.
* Add multiple service periods (e.g., 09:00 - 14:00 and 17:00 - 22:00).
  * Some venues operate with breaks between service periods. This can be configured by adding multiple service periods for each relevant day.
* Remove operating hours to mark the day as closed.

{% hint style="info" %}
Only owners are allowed to remove all intervals for a given day.

Other users are able to add new intervals and update existing intervals, but they cannot delete. If the service has multiple service periods, users are able to delete some but at least one will remain.
{% endhint %}

## Midnight Crossover Rules

When service hours extend **past midnight** (e.g., Friday night leading into Saturday morning), the crossover hours should be configured under the next day's service hours.

> **Example:**
>
> If a service operates from 18:00 Friday to 02:00 Saturday (i.e., 2 hours past midnight of Friday night), this is configured as:
>
> * **Friday**: 18:00 — 23:59
> * **Saturday**: 00:00 — 02:00
>
> Add another service hour interval to capture actual Saturday hours.
>
> * **Saturday**: 00:00 — 02:00 ; 18:00 — 23:59

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bossithq.com/services/external-schedule.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
