The price calendar tells MoveBoard what each day is worth. A day's colour is its price level, which picks the row of your Rates grid; a small number in its corner is that day's minimum hours.

The price calendar: Select Dates (1) lets you mark many days at once; each day is coloured by its price level

What a day can be

  • Discount, Regular, Sub-Peak, Peak or High-Peak — the rates of that row. A day you never marked is Regular.
  • Blocked — customers can't pick it. The date pickers in the customer portal and on your website forms show it black and refuse it ("That day is not available. Please pick another day."), and the AI receptionist won't offer it.
  • Minimum hours — 1 to 5, or None. A day's minimum replaces the company minimum from Crew Size & Minimums for moves on that day.

Levels you switched off on the Rates page don't appear in the menu.

Mark one day

  1. Open Settings › Pricing & calculator › Price calendar.
  2. Pick the move type at the top if you have more than one.
  3. Click the day. A menu opens with the price levels.
  4. Pick a level — or press Set minimum hours… and pick the hours.

Mark many days at once

  1. Press Select Dates.
  2. Click every day you want. The bar counts them.
  3. Press Set Pricing Level or Set Minimum Hours and pick.
  4. Press Done to stop selecting.

The calendar saves each change at once — there's no Save button. If the server refuses a change, the days go back and a note says why.

Use the arrows beside the year to move between years. Past years are there to look at, not to change.

Update the open orders

Quotes already given keep their rates until you say otherwise. After you change days from today on, the bar shows … days changed · Update open orders…, and MoveBoard asks again when you leave the page:

> Update the open orders? You changed 3 days. Update the 5 open orders on those days to the new rates? Reserved and Booked orders won't change.

  • Update them reprices those orders in the background; a banner counts how many are done.
  • Keep them as they are leaves them alone.

Reserved and Booked orders never change: the customer already agreed to their price.

Copy to other move types

Copy to other move types asks first, then copies this move type's whole calendar over the others, replacing what they have. This saves at once.
