Break Times Window

Break times are used to configure break requirements for staff.

Example: A provider should get a 10-minute break sometime from 90 minutes to 120 minutes into their shift.

Break time is calculated based on the time you begin your shift (not by a specific time or session start). If someone tries to book an appointment that would not allow for the specified break, a message displays and the appointment is not booked.

The Break Times window allows you to manage the break rules for providers at your institution.
