# Manage Locations and Business Availability

## In this article, learn how to add and manage your locations as well as how to set specific business availability.

APPLIES TO: Admins

Last updated: October 14, 2026

### **Manage Locations**

As an admin, you have the ability to add and manage your locations in your business settings. The locations that you add in your business settings will appear during event creation and allow you to choose the location of your events. This is helpful if you host training events at multiple locations and need to make sure clients know exactly where to go. 

In order to access these components, you will need log into your account and hover over the main navigation bar on the left hand side and click **Settings (gear icon)**. Then click on the **Locations** tab.

#### Add Location

![SMB Settings\>Locations tab](https://help.upperhand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SMB%20Settings%3ELocations%20tab.png?width=670&height=367&name=SMB%20Settings%3ELocations%20tab.png)

- **Click the blue** **+Add Locations** button

![SMB Settings\>Add Locations Drawer](https://help.upperhand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SMB%20Settings%3EAdd%20Locations%20Drawer.png?width=670&height=367&name=SMB%20Settings%3EAdd%20Locations%20Drawer.png)

- **Complete all fields** in the Add Locations drawer 
    - **Note:** Address Type is for internal purposes only
- Decide whether to set the address as primary 
    - Set as primary if: this is your main location and the address you want showing on membership management request emails and [invoice](https://help.upperhand.com/create-invoice?hsLang=en) emails

- Click **Save** and you'll see your location has been updated 
    - **Note:** Once you set a location as primary it will show a green **Primary Address** tag and cannot be removed until a new primary address is selected.

**![SMB Settings \> Primary Address Location Set](https://help.upperhand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SMB%20Settings%20%3E%20Primary%20Address%20Location%20Set.png?width=670&height=367&name=SMB%20Settings%20%3E%20Primary%20Address%20Location%20Set.png)**

#### Edit Location

- Click **Edit** below to the location you'd like to update, make the appropriate changes and click **Save**.

#### Remove Location

- To remove a location, click **Remove** below the location you'd like to remove and click **Submit**
  
    - **Note:** If this location is tied to an event, the event location will become "TBD".

 

### **Manage Business Availability**

Setting your business availability allows you to input days and specific times that you want to disable scheduling in the situation that your facility will be closed or unavailable during a specific period of time.

#### Add Blackout Day

Under **Business Availability** you can click **+ Add Blackout Day** to disable scheduling for a specific day, if your facility is closed. For example, if you want to be closed on July 4th, you can add it as a Blackout day and now clients would not be able to schedule themselves for your open booking sessions that day.

#### Add Date Specific Availability

You can also input **Date Specific Availability** to specify certain hours that open booking events can be scheduled that day. For example, if are normally open 10am - 10pm and you wanted to close early at 5pm for a company retreat on June 30th, you can click **+ Date Specific Availability**, select June 30, input the **Start** **Time** as 10am and the **End** **Time** as 5pm. Now clients will not be able to schedule anything beyond 5pm on June 30th.

**Note:** If there are already sessions scheduled for that day or time frame, you will have to cancel those sessions before setting a blackout date or changing your date specific availability.
