Back On Stage's new multi-day booking feature allows you to easily manage complex scheduling for your musicians across sequential dates, recurring events, and bookings with rehearsals.

First, let’s start with some definitions:

Primary Date:

The primary date is used as the main anchor for client invoice, contract and payment due date calculations. Every booking can only have one Primary Date.

The primary date is also used as the musician payout due date (when your payments to booked musicians are due).

Secondary Date:

Secondary dates are additional dates that belong to this booking. These can be used when a booking spans multiple days, or when you need to add rehearsals for specific gigs that do not occur on the gig date.

Multi-Day Event:

A booking consisting of a Primary Date and any number of Secondary Dates.

To create a multi-day event:

1. Create a booking, or edit an existing one.

2. In the “Edit Event Details” section, click on the “Add A Date” button to add your desired number of Secondary Dates.

3. In the “Schedule and Services” section, you’ll notice a date field appear next to each schedule item. You can now set the desired date for each schedule item.

   Add items in any order, then use the “Reorder by Date/Time” button to rearrange all items in chronological order (this happens automatically when you save).

Google Calendar Sync for Multi-Day Events

Before you decide to create multi-day events, it’s important to understand how syncing will work with your and your musicians’ Google Calendars.

In Back On Stage, you book your musicians in connection to Services. Because services connect to your booked members, service dates are connected too.

1. If you set a date for a Service item, then book members for that service

   

   • Musicians will only see that service’s date reflected in their calendar, and ONLY that date will sync to their Google Calendar.

2. If you do NOT set a date for a Service item, and you book members for that service

   

   • Musicians will see all the event dates on their calendar (Primary & Secondary), and ALL the events dates (Primary & Secondary) will sync to their Google Calendar.
