How to reschedule an existing meeting to take place outside of my listed availabilities?

I am looking for an easy way to reschedule an existing scheduled meeting to take place outside of the normally listed availability?


Case in point today: client books a meeting at 11:00 am. My normal working hours go to 12:00 pm. He then calls me and asks if we can exceptionally hold the meeting at 12:00. I say yes, go in Calendly, choose the meeting and click reschedule, but I don’t seem to be able to override my normal availability and book it for 12:00 as the option is not available. 

 

I then went into my calendar, that is linked to calendly, to reschedule it from there, but my client did not receive an updated calendar invitation. 

 

For reference, I am on a paying “standard” plan. 

 

I am looking for an easy, user friendly way to do such minor schedule changes - without having to create special events, etc. 

 

Thank you for your guidance!

Hi ​@Dina66040 - Thanks for reaching out.

Rescheduling events outside of your availability is a request a lot of people have made before - So I’ve linked your post to one of our internal tickets. Hopefully we’ll see more added onto this in the future!

At this time, using the One-off event, or created a separate event for high priority meetings would be the way to go. Some users in this case will just make the change in Google Directly, which is another way to do it.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you so much David for your super fast response! 

I feared you would tell me the only way is to create a one-off or separate event… I was hoping for an easier way, with less clicks. :) I ended up agreeing with my client that he changes it at his end, and me on mine… 

If there is a way to entice Calendly to offer that rescheduling option in the near future, that would be awesome! 

Thanks again for your great support! I very much appreciated it!

Best wishes, 

Dina
