Assign Service to Day of the Week

Hi Gabriel,

Thank you so much for taking the time to research an answer to our need.  It definitely will work but has the limitation of only applying one staff member to a service.  In our situation there are up to three staff members for the service on Wednesday that need to be assigned.

Actually after posting I experimented and found an alternative way of making this work that might help others as well as your technique.

Logged into Bookings

• Business Information menu selected
• Modify your business hours time slots
• Monday has 1hr 30min allocated
• Wednesday has 2hrs allocated
• Both services themselves (Monday & Wednesday) actually run for just 1hr

• Services menu selected
• Default duration options
• Buffer Time > For Monday's service set the buffer time after the service to 30min

• Buffer Time > For Wednesday's service set the buffer time after the service to 1hr

So with the service times (Monday & Wednesday) running for 1hr and combining the buffer times,

Monday:  1hr + 30min

Wednesday:  1hr + 1hr

Start Times Limited

The start times still only show the desired one time slot available starting at 7pm and the customer can't pick a different start time due to the after buffer time being added.

Now when you select a service only the days that can offer the service plus needed buffer time actually show up on the bookings calendar page.  You click on Monday's service and just Monday dates show and you click on Wednesday's service and just Wednesday dates show.

Its a bit clunky but it does allow you to still allocated more than one staff member to a service and not have to create a fake staff member so has these advantages.  Again I so appreciate your taking the time to help me out and I hope both our solutions help others in the same need.

Still it would be nice to have a neater way to do this and I respectfully submit to the Bookings Team an enhancement request for this feature to be built-in without the workarounds.
