How to assign a school horse: Open a riding lesson in the schedule, tap a booked participant and choose "Assign school horse". StalliQ shows all available school horses with workload warnings: number of lessons today, rest days and health alerts. Pick a horse and tap "Assign horse". Soft warnings for overload or rest days are shown; a hard error only occurs when there's a time overlap.
Requirements
- Horses must be marked as school horses (Management → Horses tab)
- For each school horse you can configure max. lessons/day and rest days
- The "Manage horse assignments" permission is required
How do I assign a school horse to a riding lesson?
- Open a riding lesson in the Occupancy tab and tap the appointment
- In the participant list, tap a booked student
- Choose "Assign school horse"
- StalliQ shows all of the stable's school horses as cards
Each card shows:
- Horse name and initials avatar
- Lessons today - e.g. "2/4 lessons" (current/maximum)
- Overload warning - Yellow badge when the daily maximum is reached
- Rest day warning - Red "Rest day" badge if today is a configured rest day
- Health notes - If the horse has active symptoms, allergies or injuries
- Pick a horse (it gets a teal border) and tap "Assign horse"
What warnings are there?
Soft warnings (you can still assign):
- Overload: "Max already has 3 of 3 lessons today." - Yellow, assignment still possible
- Rest day: "Max has a rest day today." - Red, assignment still possible
- Health note: Active symptoms or allergies are shown as a badge
Hard error (assignment blocked):
- Time overlap: The horse is already assigned to another lesson at the same time. In this case you have to pick a different horse.
How do I configure school horse settings?
Under Management → Horses you'll find the school horse configuration. For each horse you can set:
- Max. lessons/day - How many riding lessons the horse should have at most per day (e.g. 3)
- Rest days - On which weekdays the horse should not be scheduled (e.g. Monday, Thursday)
How do I remove a school horse assignment?
Open the riding lesson, tap the participant with the assigned horse and choose "Assign school horse". At the bottom you'll find the "Remove assignment" button - the horse is then detached from this participant.
Frequently asked questions
Do riding students see in StalliQ which school horse was assigned to them?
Yes. After the assignment, students see the horse name on the schedule card and in the booking confirmation.
Can I assign a school horse to multiple riding lessons on the same day in StalliQ?
Yes, as long as the times don't overlap. StalliQ shows soft warnings when the daily maximum is exceeded, but only blocks on an actual time overlap. So you can use a horse in the morning and the afternoon, for example.
How do I mark a horse as a school horse in StalliQ?
Go to Management → Horses tab. There you'll see all horses assigned to the stable. Mark the desired horses as school horses and configure max. lessons/day and rest days.
What does the school horse marking have to do with the riding lesson's horse type permission?
School horses can only be assigned to riding lessons that allow "With school horse" (see Create schedule). Lessons configured exclusively for own horses hide the school horse assignment. When setting up school horse lessons, make sure to configure at least one school horse cash price or a card with horse type School horse/Both in the payment model.
