Management of Online Sales Openings and Closings

Feature description

Managing automatic opening and closing times for online sales allows you to define when an activity is available for online booking in Yoplanning.pro.

By default, you can:

  • Set an automatic shutdown X hours before the start of an activity.

Optionally, with a specific module called "Automatic Login", you can:

  • Set an automatic opening X hours before the start of an activity.

This feature is essential for:

  • Monitor registration deadlines.

  • Avoid late bookings.

  • Managing a delayed sales launch strategy.

Standard operation (without additional module)

What you can do by default

Without an additional module, you can only:

  • Automatically close the online sale X hours before the start of a session.

It is not possible to manage a delayed opening without the Auto Login module.

Steps to set up automatic closing

1. Access the product page

  2. Select the relevant product.

  3. Click on the Three small dots menu in the top right corner.

  4. Click on Edit.

  5. Open the Online Sales section.

2. Set automatic closing

In the field:

Close sales X hours before the start

  • Enter a number of hours.

  • Example :

    • If you enter 4, the sale will be closed 4 hours before the start of the session.

    • If the session starts at 2:00 PM, the sale will close at 10:00 AM.

3. Understanding the default behavior

  • If the field is empty:

    • The sale remains open until the exact start time of the session.
