Service Based Duration
Common Questions:
- How can I offer my customer the choice of 30 min OR 60 min booking?
- Can a customer book multiple consecutive timeslots?
Answer: Use Service Based Duration.
Timeslots are fixed size in ABPro. The only way to create a booking of different duration than the timeslot size is by using service based duration.
With Service Based Duration you create services, for each resource, that have duration assigned.
Example:
Resource = 'Betty'
Service 1 = 'Haircut', duration 30 min. (can also assign different prices for services if you wish)
Service 2 = 'Perm', duration 60 min.
Now the customer chooses a resource, then what service they want.
The booking will be made as 30 or 60 min depending of which service was selected.
