Is there a way to allow customers to choose their own service duration

I use the appointments functionality to allow people to book one of 10 ice cream trucks for special events and birthdays.  For birthdays I have a set time frame of 30 minutes which works correctly.  For special events I would like the customer to be able to select their duration in 15 minutes increments.  Is there a functionality to make this work?

Hi @OKC_Scoops.  There is not an obvious way, but it’s possible with a little up-front work.  You’d have to set up multiple services in multiples of 15 minutes.  So, you’d have:

 

Service 15 min

Service 30 min

Service 45 min

Service 60 min

etc, up to what you think the maximum length would be.  

 

Then the customer would choose the service of the appropriate duration.

 

Hopefully, you can find this a workable solution.  If not, I’m out of ideas!
