Is it at all possible to do a configuration like this:
We have 3 different kinds of services, 2 of each = 6 different bookable appointments per hour.
The customer should be able to book one or both of those services at one go. If he books only one service the other should be bookable by someone else.
I have tried to make 6 employees -> only one can be booked at the time.
I now have 3 employees with service that has capacity of 2 -> they both can be booked at one go but if only one is booked the other is no longer available.
So the main problem is that I need a single customer to be able to make multiple bookings without making multiple individual bookings.
One employee can cover only one appointment at a time, so if both services should be booked at 12:00, and they both last 1 hour (for example), there's no way both can be booked at the same time.
A workaround would be to create duplicate employees, so there are two John Does, two Jane Does, etc. One would be booked for Service 1 at 12:00 and the other would be booked for Service 2 at 12:00.
Let's say that there's a couple that wants to book at the same time. The wife books 1 employee at 12:00 but the she has to make a totally new booking for her husband. The ideal would be if the wife can book both employees at 12:00 with a single booking. Is that possible?
I'm afraid that it's not, Annika. At least not yet.
Our developers are trying to figure out a way to modify Amelia's code so couple-bookings are available but it's not an easy task since the whole core of the code revolves around one-employee one-appointment rule, and they need to rewrite the code without breaking all current functionalities.
I honestly can't say when this will be implemented.

Hello Annika.
Thank you for reaching out to us.
One employee can cover only one appointment at a time, so if both services should be booked at 12:00, and they both last 1 hour (for example), there's no way both can be booked at the same time.
A workaround would be to create duplicate employees, so there are two John Does, two Jane Does, etc. One would be booked for Service 1 at 12:00 and the other would be booked for Service 2 at 12:00.

Yes, that is the solution I tried first BUT...
