How do I set my locations and open hours?
Last updated September 18, 2026
Your open hours tell Kickstool when desks need to be covered, and locations let a multi-branch system keep each site's schedule straight.
- Go to Settings → Locations & hours.
- Add or edit a branch (name and address).
- Set the open hours for each day — start from a preset and adjust — or mark a day closed.
Note
Coverage is measured against these hours. If a desk is only staffed for part of the open day, it shows as understaffed — so keep your hours accurate.
Single-branch library? You'll just have the one location, and that's completely fine. For one-off holiday closures, see marking the library closed.
Adding another location
Follow the multi-location setup guide to connect service points, staff home locations, and manager access. Use the up and down arrows here to set the shared location order in Today and Schedule.
