I was wondering if you could tell me how to configure a service that includes multiple appointments. For example a "4-lesson package". How would I give users the ability to schedule a date for each of the lessons in the package?
Currently if someone buys a lesson package, they would schedule one date for one lesson. But what about the other three lessons?
I hope that makes sense. I did try to find the answer to this in the docs but couldn't figure it out. Thanks so much for your help.
Sorry, I just figured this out by searching the public tickets. I appears that packages/bundles of a number of appointments are not a feature that is currently available with Amelia.
I will be voting to add this feature to the plugin, and kinda think it's weird that it is not a feature already.
At the moment we don't have a package purchase option. Our developers are working on adding that in the near future, but until then I can offer a work-around.
You can create a service which would be named "Bulk Purchase" for example, and it would cost a certain amount. Then, you would need to create a 100% discount coupon which could be used 9 times, and limit the usage to 9 per customer, like this:
My advice would also be to enable the notifications, so they get an e-mail with the discount coupon, explaining that they need to use the coupon for the remaining 9 sessions:
You would need to add the %coupon_1% placeholder to the e-mail, so they get the coupon code they can use.
After someone books the first appointment, they receive an e-mail with it, and they use it to book the remaining 9 sessions.
Hello,
Love the plugin, it's great!

Anyway, Thanks, this can be closed.
FYI I also found this workaround on another ticket from Aleksandar:
This can be done only through recurring appointments.

I hope this helps.
Thanks a lot for the update and apologies for the delayed response.
