As a business owner, you have a choice of how to configure and display your business hours to your customers.
-
Calculate the business's hours based on all employee hours
-
Set Business Hours manually and override the calculation based on employee hours
The process for setting up Business Hours, either through the Business Profile or Employee Hours, is the same on the Vagaro Pro app and the Web version. Getting to the right screen depends on your version, so we'll show only those differences in this article.
-
Go to the Business Profile screen:
Web Version: click Settings and then Business Profile.
Vagaro Pro app: tap More... then Settings and Business Profile.
-
Enter Business Hours.
Use Copy to all to fill all days with the same open/close times.
-
Leave Use Employee Working Hours off (gray.)
-
Click Save to finish.
If you set your hours through the business profile this way, what you enter is shown to customers on your Vagaro booking page.
Note
-
Businesses with a single Vagaro license (1 employee) will not see the Business Hours setting on their Business Profile screen. Hours shown will be based on that employee's working hours.
-
Businesses with no employees of the employee type Service Provider will also not see the Business Hours setting.
-
The first time set up of a new Business Profile sets Employee Working Hours Off by default.
-
Go to the Employee Profiles page.
Web Version: hover over Settings, click Employees, and then Employee Profiles.
Vagaro Pro app: tap → → .
-
On each employee's profile, click the Hours button and set working hours for each employee.
Use Copy to all to fill all days with the same open/close times.
-
Click Save.
-
Go to Settings, then Business Profile.
-
Under Business Hours, set Use Employee Working Hours to On (green) and click Save.
With the switch On, there are no entry fields for daily open/close hours.
When using this option, Vagaro calculates a business's hours based on the earliest employee open time and the latest employee close time for each day of the week.
|

Open time |

|
Employee B |
9 am |
6 pm |
|
Employee C |
7 am |
5 pm |
|
Employee D |
12 noon |
8 pm |
The Business Hours for this day will be 7 am to 8 pm.

Looking to have a lunch option so I'm not getting booked while I'm on lunch break.
Hi Dr. Hoekstra,
You can split your shifts with personal tasks. Here is an article that goes into more detail: https://support.vagaro.com/hc/en-us/articles/11399797218971-Split-Shifts-Using-a-Personal-Task
You can prevent customers from booking during that set time with personal tasks.
If you have any more questions, please let me know.
Thanks,
Jamie
This article is wrong. There is nowhere to adjust business hours under business profile.
Hi Z Anderson,
Did you toggle Use Employee Working Hours off?
You can only modify Business Hours if this switch is turned off.
Thanks,
Jamie
