4.From the Type drop-down list, select whether you want it to be a Group Restriction or Global Restriction.
5.If you are creating a Group Restriction, select a Location Group from the Group drop-down list.   The Location Groups in the drop-down list are those you created when entering Locations.
6.Enter a description in the Description field.
7.Enter the From Date and To Date of the restriction.
8.Enter the From Time and To Time of the restriction.  These are the times that apply each day of the restriction. Default times may already appear if you set Location Restriction Default Times in your General System Settings.
a.For example, if you have a restriction set from Monday, May 22 to Wednesday, May 24, with times from 9 AM to 2 PM, the restriction applies Monday 9 AM to 2 PM, Tuesday 9 AM to 2 PM and Wednesday 9 AM to 2 PM, with the other times during the days appearing as unrestricted.  The restriction does not apply from Monday at 9 PM through to Wednesday at 2 PM.
b.To create a restriction that applies Monday through Wednesday, you would set the restriction times as midnight to midnight each day.
9.Select the Conflict Level from the drop-down list:
a.Full: If a restriction conflict level is set as “Full”, you will not be able to book a conflicting event.  Once a restriction with a “Full” conflict level setting is in a time slot, nothing else can use that time slot (except for an event with the “Ignore” conflict level).
b.Warn: If a restriction conflict level is set as “Warn”, EventPro will warn you of any booking conflict, but will not prevent the booking.
c.Ignore: Restrictions with this conflict level do not conflict with any events and will not be considered when EventPro performs a conflict check.
10.Under Options, check the boxes if you want to Show on Calendar Year View, Show on Calendar Month View, Show on Calendar Week View and/or Show on Calendar Day View.
11.Click Save.
12.If there is an event already booked during the restriction time, a dialog box will warn you that an event is booked within the restriction you are about to create. If you want to continue creating the restriction anyway, click Yes.
