Abstract
Techniques for processing calendar availability and consolidating appointments are described herein. In some implementations, the techniques may monitor scheduling interactions of a merchant with a calendar to schedule a merchant as unavailable in the calendar at a particular time and/or to reschedule the merchant as available at a time that is designated as unavailable. Additionally, or alternatively, the techniques may consolidate a merchant's schedule by rescheduling appointments when particular criteria are satisfied. Further, the techniques may include other features to manage a calendar and/or enhance a merchant's experience in scheduling appointments.
