A class booking is a one-to-many type calendar to host multiple invitees in a single booking. Class bookings are helpful when you want various invitees to attend a single event at once; some examples, but not limited to::
Webinars/Workshops
Training Sessions
Sports Events
In this article, you will learn the benefits of using the Class Booking Calendar and how to use it.
Using Class Calendars offers several benefits for managing events with multiple attendees, such as:
Efficient organization: Class Calendars simplify organizing and managing one-to-many events by allowing you to create a single booking that accommodates multiple invitees, streamlining the scheduling process.
Customizable capacity: You can set the number of spots per slot to control the class size and ensure an optimal learning or participation environment.
Centralized management: Class Calendars provide a centralized platform to manage bookings, cancellations, and rescheduling, making it easier for the appointment owner to oversee all aspects of the event.
Enhanced communication: Class Calendars facilitate better communication with attendees by providing a clear overview of event details, such as date, time, and location. This helps reduce confusion and the likelihood of no-shows.
Time-saving: By automating the booking process and providing options for attendees to cancel or reschedule their appointments, Class Calendars save time for both the organizer and the attendees.

Enter a Meeting Duration and Seats per class
For your class booking, you can choose the number of attendees you'd like to have at each event.
For example, if you set the maximum number of seats per slot to 10, then up to 10 invitees can book a single time slot. Ten attendees can book a class or training session at 1:00 PM.
You can choose up to 9,999 attendees in a single slot; however, if you use a conferencing tool, the tool may have a different maximum attendee limit. For example, Zoom offers a maximum of 500 attendees for certain licenses.

Please Note: Click advanced settings for more options. We have an article titled “Calendar Setup 101” that is a great resource for all settings.To reschedule the meeting:
Go to your Calendar
Select the meeting you want to reschedule
Click "Reschedule All," which would reschedule the appointment for all the attendees
To cancel a class booking:
Open the appointment
Click "Cancel All."
To cancel or reschedule the appointment for a particular attendee, click on the options next to the attendee from the list to see the Cancel and Reschedule option, which would cancel or reschedule the appointment for that specific attendee.
Businesses can also define a time frame during which bookers can access cancellation or reschedule links on the booking widget
Head to the Notifications and Additional Options section.
Turn on "Allow Cancellation" and "Allow Rescheduling".
Specify the time range after which the links are disabled.
Note: In case you have third-party calendars like Google Calendar or Outlook integrated with the CRM's calendar then in that case, the class booking would show each appointment separately in your Google or Outlook calendar. Example: If you have created a class booking with a capacity of 5 attendees then on the Google or Outlook calendar they would appear as 5 separate events at the same time.
The meeting location for Class Booking, as of now is restricted to Custom. This limitation will be removed shortly.
