With this enhancement, we now consider blocked slots when applying pre and post-buffers for appointments. This ensures that buffers do not overlap with blocked slots, providing appropriate buffer times for appointments.
What’s New?
Previously, if a 30-minute appointment with a 30-minute interval & 30-minute pre and post-buffers was set, and a slot from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM was blocked, the next available slot displayed would be 12:30 PM and the previously available slot displayed would be 11:30 AM, ignoring the blocked slot entirely.
Now, considering the same scenario, the next available slot would be 1:00 PM, accommodating the required 30-minute pre-buffer. The previous available slot would be 11:00 AM, considering 11:00 AM to 11:30 AM as the duration and 11:30 AM to 12:00 PM as the required post-buffer.
How to Use?
– Choose the calendar to which you want to add buffers for appointments.
– Navigate to the Availability section.
– Specify the duration you want for both the pre and post-buffers and click on save.
