Allowing multiple bookings for the same time in Microsoft Bookings
There is a workaround for this - create the number of dummy staff up to the maximum number of 'customers' that you want to book into the session, and assign them all to the service. So if you want 20 seats available at the training you create 20 dummy 'staff'. Once all 20 seats have been booked that date will no longer be available.
Not sure if this post is still valid but I'm trying to create staff with alias email addresses but it doesn't add them.
Hi Geoff
I've created "dummy staff" to allow multiple people to book the same slot for a group dog training class but it won't allow me to use a generic business email for multiple staff?
Is there a way around this? I don't want to be creating 8 different fake email addresses!
Thank you
Sue Waugh did you ever manage to find a solution to this? I have run into the same problem.
Hi Andy, I was having issues then I did the following.
Choose a service from your options. On the number of attendees, right click 'inspect element' (image attached). Where you see 'disabled' highlight that and then delete it from the code. You should then see arrows up and down. Use these to choose the number of attendees and make sure you click 'save' on your service button. This should fix the problem I hope. Take care, Sarah
Hi Sue
Unfortunately not that I am aware of.... I had to go the fake email address route!
looks like fake emails no longer work. Has anyone been able to create dummy users?
I saw in a previous response how to create dummy staff to allow for multiple bookings per time slot. However, my staffing isn't the same for every hour of the day. How do vary the number of bookings I can do, hour per hour, throughout the day?
If you set the individual working hours for each of the dummy staff instead of using "Business hours" then it will adjust the availability that customers see.
