# Hours of Operation

Use this workflow to set each section's weekly opening and closing times. This is helpful when a section has different hours than the rest of the venue, or when your team needs to mark specific days as closed.

### Update Opening Hours

* Navigate to the section settings page for the section you want to edit
* Open the **Opening Hours** tab
* Enter a **From** and **To** time for each day
* Leave both fields empty for days that should be fully closed
* Review any validation warning shown under a day
* Click **Save**

\[]

### What Happens After Save

* The section's base opening window is recalculated from your weekly rows
* Closed-time overrides are regenerated from the latest row values
* The Scheduling UI uses these hours as the allowed time range for each day

### Tips

* Keep opening and closing values consistent across days that should share one schedule card
* If you see a feasibility warning, fix the highlighted day first, then save again
* Save Opening Hours before making final schedule edits so your day bounds stay aligned

## Configure Section Schedules and Member Hours

Use this workflow to control time-band schedules for non-members, all members, and specific memberships. This is useful when member access windows differ from standard hours.

### Edit Non-member Schedule

* Navigate to the section settings page
* Open the **Opening Hours** tab, then find the **Schedule** section
* Edit each time range's **Rate band**, **From**, and **To**
* Add or remove rows as needed
* Make sure all open days are assigned to a schedule card

### Set Member-Only Schedule Rules

* Turn on **Members Only Schedule** for a card when member hours should differ from non-member hours
* Use **DEFAULT (All Members)** to define the baseline member schedule
* Add **alternative schedule** blocks for specific memberships when needed
* Save after resolving any overlap warnings

\[![](/files/VnosB7nStt9JnKcALdwb)]

### Important Notes

* Open days must all be covered by at least one schedule card before save
* Overlapping time windows must be fixed before save
* Saving schedule updates modifies schedule ranges only, not rate amounts

## 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.podplay.app/owners-playbook/build-your-club/build-a-location/hours-of-operation.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.
