Hi,

I was wondering if the plugin has an option for a "service break". My client has a hair salon where she colors the hair. She usually is working on her customer for a half hour then the customer needs to wait a half hour and she continues to work after that half hour with the customer. In that free half hour she wants to be able to have people book appointments (so a break in the hair color service). Is that possible with your plugin?

Hi, just wanted to share that I have the same need, and it's an important functionality for a hair salon.

There are plugins that do it (though they lack other features). I think this will be a feature that will be requested more in the future, so please consider it. Hair salon's really need this, since it will cost time and money if a customer can't book in between hair colouring services. I think it would be achievable with making an option for a "special service" to assign to the service's that need it.

I know it's easier said then done, but please atleast consider it.

Thanks Marko for your answer.

The only solution I have found for the moment is to create a 1h30 service and ask the employee to manually modify the booking for this service to another 30min service and to clone this booking to create a second one of 30min with a 30min break between both bookings.

I see it's possible to create webhooks with Amelia, do you think it's possible that I create a webhook that listens to the booking creation events and calls an API to modify the booking and create a second booking (if it's not possible with an API maybe I can do it in the database directly) ?


I know it's not the cleanest solution, but it at least allows me to automate this manual task that we plan to do while waiting to have the functionality on Amelia.

Thanks in advance.
