# Recurring & Overnight Bookings

> Schedule recurring events and manage multi-day or overnight stays.

Recurring and overnight bookings let you automate repeated sessions or multi-day stays without conflicts.\
Use these features for classes, courses, retreats, long stays, or weekly programs.

## Recurring Events

Create a full series such as **“Yoga Class every Wednesday at 6 PM for 10 weeks.”**\
You can generate up to **100 occurrences** in advance.

### How to Create a Recurring Event Series

1. Go to **MANAGE → Events → Advanced Settings** inside your event.
2. Choose a **Start date**.
3. Select a **Recurrence pattern** (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or custom).
4. Add an **End date** or a **Number of occurrences** (up to 100).
5. Save — Oskar generates every occurrence instantly.

### How It Works

* All future occurrences appear in your **Calendar** and **Events** list.
* Oskar automatically blocks linked **resources** (e.g., instructors, rooms, equipment) for each occurrence.
* You can edit, move, cancel, or delete **individual occurrences** without affecting the entire series.

***

## Client-Driven Recurring Appointments

Client-created recurring service appointments (for example,\
**“Haircut every Tuesday at 6 PM, recurring weekly”**) are **not yet supported**.

Clients can currently book only **one appointment at a time**.\
If needed, you can manually create a sequence of bookings or use **recurring events** as a workaround.

(Full recurring service appointments are on the roadmap.)

## Overnight Bookings

Use **Nights** as the duration unit for services that involve multi-day stays:

* Hotels & accommodations
* Campsites
* Retreats
* Equipment rentals spanning multiple days

### How to Enable Overnight Logic

1. Go to **MANAGE → Services → \[Service Name] → Booking Duration**.
2. Select **Nights**.

Oskar will then:

* Block the **arrival night**
* Automatically free the **departure day**
* Allow **back-to-back** bookings with no overlap

Example:\
A booking from **June 1–3** blocks the nights of June 1 and 2, and frees June 3 for the next guest.

## Notes & Best Practices

* **Recurring events** and **overnight bookings** are independent features, usable together or separately.
* Use recurring events for **classes, workshops, or courses**.
* Use overnight duration units for **lodging, retreats, or multi-day rentals**.
* Recurring services (client-driven) are planned for a future release.
* You can always adjust or remove individual recurring occurrences without affecting the full series.
