I would like clients to register for an appointment where I have a custom field where a client needs to select a type of car, and depending on the selected car the price of the service/appointment needs to change. I know you can set extras, but this is not an extra, it's the standard service, but the price just depends on what the client selects in the custom fields...
What is the best way to achieve this? Are there certain hooks I can use to write a custom code snippet perhaps, that changes the price, depending on the selection that the client made?
Unfortunately, currently, this feature is not built-in in Amelia. This in not how Amelia works. Custom fields are designed for gathering additional information it can not be set to function this way. Also, the prices for services are fixed and it can not be changed dynamically based on something. You can create separate services for each car or you can use extras to add a car choice there is not other way at this time ti achieve what you need.
Features are pushed up on our "to-do" list when there are a lot of customers requesting those features, so having your vote as a customer can be beneficial to this feature being developed sooner.
If you have any more questions please open a new separate ticket for each question and we will gladly help you there.
Is it possible to set extra options as required? (that would also be a solution when I rename extras to the car brand choice or something)... but then it needs to be a required field.
... and otherwise I guess I'l have to use multiple services.

Ok, I added the feature request.
Is it possible to set extra options as required? (that would also be a solution when I rename extras to the car brand choice or something)... but then it needs to be a required field.

Hello Geert,
Thank you for that. Yes, you can create extras and you can make those extras to be mandatory like this
Hope this helps.
