Allowing multiple bookings for the same time in Microsoft Bookings
Hi, I am trying to setup a bookings calendar that allows multiple people to book the same service at the same time. In this instance it is First Aid Training for a specific day without time incre...
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.
I use Bookings through Teams. This is how I found how to allow for multiple bookings for one appointment time:
- Create a new service. (Once you have created a service that shows as 1:1, you're doomed. Just start over.)
- Immediately after naming the service, set the maximum number of attendees to anything more than 1.
- Save changes. Then you can go ahead and fill in the rest of the settings as desired. You'll see the difference on the main booking page.
