5 years ago very good initiative indeed. This feature could help with many scenarios form renting out machinery, vehicles, to a hotel business or the healthcare module (booking rooms/beds for patients) or even just help with internal processes like availability of certain tools.
some thoughts regarding functionality:
-
rental start/stop period time needs to be more precise then a complete day (maybe it should be possible to define the rental period precision per specific item).
-
there need to be a setting which defines a maintenance time between return and next rental availability. Example: you rent out a room in a hotel ... checkout is happening at 10:00 am. Then you'll need time to maintain then room (aka clean it) to make it ready for the next visitor to move in. This maintenance time can be quite different depending on the actual item rented out, so this maintenance period length must be able to be defined per item.
-
maybe not only customers but also employees should be able to rent an item (like a tool that is shared within the organization)
