How to Create a Round Robin Calendar in BizStackPro
Automatically distribute appointments across your team and streamline your booking process with balanced scheduling.
Distributing Appointments Across a Team Without Manual Assignment
You may have multiple team members handling bookings, but it’s not always clear how to assign appointments fairly without manual coordination.
Round robin scheduling automatically distributes bookings between available team members based on your selected rules.
If this isn’t set up correctly, one team member may receive too many bookings while others remain underutilized.
This guide will show you how to create a round robin calendar so appointments are distributed evenly and your scheduling process runs smoothly.
Once you understand how round robin scheduling works, follow the steps below to create and configure your team calendar inside BizStackPro.
The Round Robin Calendar in BizStackPro helps teams manage scheduling by distributing new bookings automatically among available team members. This keeps workloads balanced, reduces back-and-forth, and improves the client experience.
Step-by-Step Setup Instructions
- Go to the Calendars area and click Create Calendar.
- Select Round Robin as the calendar type.
- Fill in your calendar details, including:
- Logo
- Name and description
- Meeting duration and custom URL
- Available locations (Phone, Zoom, Google Meet, etc.)
- Select the team members you want included in the round robin pool.
- Choose how appointments should be assigned:
- Optimize for Availability: Prioritize based on availability and priority settings, then rotate by recent activity.
- Equal Distribution: Rotate evenly between team members.
- Set your working hours, buffer times, and any date-specific overrides.
- Customize the booking page appearance, add forms (if needed), and enable automated notifications.
- Click Save and publish your calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I customize which team members are available for round robin scheduling?
Yes. You can select specific team members when creating the round robin calendar so only those individuals receive appointments.
How does “Optimize for Availability” work?
It prioritizes assigning appointments based on a team member’s availability and priority settings. If no conflicts exist, it will rotate based on time since the last appointment.
What happens if no slots are available within the specified date range?
The booking widget continues searching ahead until the next available date is found so bookings can still be accepted.
