Changing Maximum Number of Attendees back to 1
Last week I couldn't set it to lower then 2.
This week I can't even change it.Edit: When I edit the HTML and remove the disabled="" attribute from the field, I can edit and the setting gets saved. Microsoft only releasing untested alpha software recently. Annoying...
Thank you.

O___O l_christensen1085 Thanks for reaching out to us. Any service with maximum attendee as 1 is a single customer service and any service with maximum attendee as 2 or more is a multi customer service. As by design, we cannot convert single customer to multi customer or vice versa. Hence we cannot edit and save a number less than 2. You can create a new service for such scenario. Thanks for your interest in Bookings.
This is a ludicruous design feature that leaves a little "bomb" to be discovered after you have set something up with the wrong setting and disbursed it to 100s of customers... no way to fix!!
This is absolutely, unjustifiably insane behavior from a company of your size and reach. Wow. I'm honestly floored.
I'm now going to have to recreate 50 services because we didn't realize that 2+ would not put customer details into the calendar invitations, just a message that says “This is a multi-customer booking. Login into Bookings….etc.” which is also poor functionality in its own right, though potentially justified.
The two issues together plus little guidance from MS are going to cost me many hours. Ouch.AndrewCecka Having to recreate services because of the lacking calendar information is my pain point too. There was no indication that allowing 2 people to book would do this and to not be able to change it back? Not good at all.
Microsoft, at least add a little pop-up that says 'if you change this to more than 1, booking information will no longer show in calendar'. C'mon.
This is a stupid limitation that should be invisible to end users.
If there are two separate event types in your backend, why don't you automatically create a new single invitee event, clone all the information from multi booking to standard, then delete the original rather than just create more work for the end user?
