Manage your availability for showings

With Smart Scheduling, you can easily manage your personal availability for showings.

Setting up your availability here is required for all agents who do in-person showings

In this guide, we'll cover how to connect your Google/Outlook calendar and manage your showing windows

Step One - Connect your calendar

Go to Settings > Personal
Click your calendar provider
On the next page, log in to your calendar
Then follow the directions to set up the connection (note, for Google Calendar you will need to press the "Advanced" link and then "Continue Anyway"

Smart Scheduling will now block showings at times where your calendar shows you as busy.

If you're adding all day events in Google Calendar and want to block that time in RentEngine, choose the "Busy" option in the event settings of the calendar invite

Step Two - Manage your Showing Windows

Go to Settings > Personal
Click and drag to select your Showing Windows. Dark blue means you're usually available then, light blue means it's outside of your working hours.
Press "Save Showing Windows"

Any future changes you make to your Showing Windows will update the availability for properties where you're the showing agent.
