Greetings, so we were asked to find a calendar to use it for street musician management at the local municipality. This will be working as a schedule platform with some restrictions (I will explain).
There will a map of the area and on the map (we will create a custom map) will be marked spots where the street musicians will be able to book.
So, we wanted a calendar that will manage the days of the musicians will be working and in which spot.
Here are some restrictions we want:
-Each musician will be able to book a spot on the calendar for a max of 15 days per month per spot! Meaning a street musician can NOT book the same spot twice.
-Each spot will be unique that means if a spot is booked, no one else will be able to book it for the same days.
-The user (street musician) should be able to log in with username and pass provide some information (that we need) and then book a spot for 15 days max, after this period will pass, he can NOT book the same spot again, he can book another spot though.
-A user (street musician) that has already booked a spot, will NOT be able to book another spot for the same days. Keep in mind each musician will be able to book a spot on the calendar for a max of 15 days per month. (15 days per month per spot! Meaning a street musician can NOT book the same spot twice).
Why we thought about your Plug in?
We saw that in the plug in you can use a calendar and can manage and set up reservations-bookings. Based on that we thought that if we use the spots as “apartments” or rooms for example (each spot will be a room) and set up booking days and reservations (for the spots-rooms), does this cover what we want to do?
Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunatelly, this would not be possible to configure within Amelia features, allow me to explain how Amelia works. First of all, you would need to configure employees and services. These services are displayed on the booking form where a customer can select a service or employee. They would book a particular timeslot for a certain day, for a certain service, but there is no option to book multiple days. Maximum service duration is 24 hours, therefore it's not possible to configure the service duration longer than this.
This particular timeslot can be configured to be booked once, so when one customer books this timeslot, then the other ones would not be able to book the same one. As for the option for customers (musicians) to be able to log in, there is a customer panel, but this panel doesn't allow customers to book the appointments through the customer panel, they would need to do that from the booking form.
At last, I wanted to provide the link to demo, so you can get a better overview of how Amelia works. Here it is - demos.
Yeah i understand that but why a customer won't be able to book more days? Let's say there is a pshychology service, or a physiotherapy service, why is he not able to book more than 1 day in one go? something like booking a room in a hotel -- it's the same mindset of what we want to achieve.
This is because the maximum service duration is 24 hours, as stated, therefore there is no option to configure the duration longer than 24 hours. Customers are only able to book certain time (appointment) for a service. There is a feature called "Cart", but this allows customers to book multiple appointments per one booking, but no multiple days.

I hope I cleared a bit.
