I am setting up your application for a medical practice. Among the services, there are some that involve multiple doctors, and each doctor takes a different amount of time to perform the service. How can you set a different time for the same service for different doctors?
Thanks for reaching out to us. As you said, you would need to create multiple employees (that will represent the employees) and set the work hours for each employee separately. When you create a working schedule for each employee, you can assign them to work on the same service. Later, on the booking form, the customer will have the option to choose the employee and then the service and it will display the timeslot availability for that service, but based on the selected employee's working schedule.
Also, to mention, timeslot availability depends on the combination of service duration and employee work hours. For example, if the service duration is 2h, and the employee's work hours are 09 - 17, the employee will be able to cover the slots in increments of 2h, so 09 - 11, 11 - 13, 13 - 15, etc.
Hello, thank you for your response. However, I believe I may not have been able to convey my issue properly. A service is carried out by two employees. The first one requires 30 minutes, while the second, for the same service, takes 45 minutes.
Well, the employee working schedule follows the service duration. That being said, if the service duration is 45 minutes, then the employee working schedule needs to be configured to cover the same service duration.
If you set the service duration to 45 minutes and one of the employee has the working schedule set to 30 minutes, he will not be able to cover those 45 minutes.
