Setting different start / end of day times for different days of the week? #3029

Open jberanek opened 3 years ago

jberanek commented 3 years ago

Hello! I manage the IT for a public library. We are looking to re-open our meeting room soon, and one of the stipulations is that we will no longer allow our patrons to use our meeting rooms when the building is closed. This presents a problem since our open hours differ by day - we close at 5 PM, 7 PM and 2 PM depending on the day. So far I have been unable to find a way to set different start / end times to disallow patrons from requesting time periods after those hours.

As an example, I could set the entire system to be available from 9 AM - 7 PM, Monday - Saturday, but we close at 5 PM on Wednesdays and Fridays, and 2 PM on Saturdays, so we don't want patrons to be able to request the room after those times on those specific days. Is there a way to do this with the current version?

The simplest thing to do is just to make weekly repeat bookings for the times that it's not available with a description of something like "Closed". You could also have a booking type of Closed.
