Your minimum notice controls how close to the start of a session customers can still book online. The Advanced notices app lets you set a separate notice period for sessions that haven't yet reached their minimum capacity, so you can manage quiet sessions differently from busy ones. For example, you might close a quiet session to online bookings 48 hours before it starts, giving you time to decide whether it runs, while a session that's reached its minimum stays open until 2 hours before. It's free to use. **Switch on Advanced notices** 1. Go to Toolset -\> Apps 2. Select 'Advanced notices' 3. Select 'Add to eola' and confirm if prompted **Set notice periods for an activity** 1. Go to Products -\> Activities and select 'Edit' on the activity 2. Open the Options step and find the Minimum notice section 3. **Minimum notice (hours):** The notice period for this activity, if you want it to be different from your centre-wide setting 4. **Minimum notice when underbooked (hours):** The notice period that applies while a session hasn't reached its minimum capacity 5. Click Save and exit Leave a field blank to use your centre-wide minimum notice, which you'll find in Toolset -\> Policies -\> Minimum notice. **Open up a single session** To take bookings right up until one particular session starts, open the session from your calendar and switch on 'Override minimum notice'. This is handy when you want to fill last-minute spaces on a specific session. **Good to know** - Notice periods are set in hours - Once a session reaches its minimum capacity, the standard minimum notice applies again - Minimum notice only affects bookings made through your widget **Helpful tips:** - Use a longer underbooked notice on sessions that need a minimum number of people to run - Use 'Override minimum notice' on busy days to pick up walk-ins and last-minute bookings online - Check your centre-wide minimum notice first, so you only override it where you need to **Related guides** - [View your calendar](https://help.eola.co/viewing-your-calendar?hsLang=en) - [Add times to your calendar](https://help.eola.co/add-times-to-your-calendar?hsLang=en) - [Set your activity's booking options](https://help.eola.co/set-your-activitys-booking-options?hsLang=en) - [Getting started](https://help.eola.co/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Activities & features](https://help.eola.co/activities-features?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Activities](https://help.eola.co/activities-features?hsLang=en#activities) - [Rentals](https://help.eola.co/activities-features?hsLang=en#rentals) - [Resources](https://help.eola.co/activities-features?hsLang=en#resources) - [Bookings & availability](https://help.eola.co/bookings-availability?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Your calendar](https://help.eola.co/bookings-availability?hsLang=en#your-calendar) - [eola Marketplace](https://help.eola.co/eola-marketplace?hsLang=en) - [Memberships](https://help.eola.co/memberships?hsLang=en) - [Vouchers, passes & discount codes](https://help.eola.co/vouchers-passes-discount-codes?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Credit vouchers](https://help.eola.co/vouchers-passes-discount-codes?hsLang=en#credit-vouchers) - [Class passes](https://help.eola.co/vouchers-passes-discount-codes?hsLang=en#class-passes) - [Discount codes](https://help.eola.co/vouchers-passes-discount-codes?hsLang=en#discount-codes) - [Marketing](https://help.eola.co/marketing?hsLang=en) - [Account & billing](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Your Payouts](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#your-payouts) - [Your Widget](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#your-widget) - [Centre Settings](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#centre-settings) - [Your Policies](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#your-policies) - [Team & Permission Sets](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#team-permission-sets) - [Leaving eola](https://help.eola.co/account-billing?hsLang=en#leaving-eola) - [Troubleshooting](https://help.eola.co/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#main-content) - [I am having a problem](https://help.eola.co/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#i-am-having-a-problem) - [A customer is having a problem](https://help.eola.co/troubleshooting?hsLang=en#a-customer-is-having-a-problem) [![eola](https://help.eola.co/hs-fs/hubfs/eola-logo-web-1.png?width=87&height=32&name=eola-logo-web-1.png "eola")](https://help.eola.co/?hsLang=en) [mailto:help@eola.co](mailto:help@eola.co) Copyright © 2026, eola
