Has anyone successfully used Jevents as a Booking/Management tool. I'm in need of an extension that would allow a customer to book an appointment for a SPA. The customer would be presented with a calendar and could select an open date/time slot based on current availability. The back end would control availability and allow the business owner to accept or reject appointment requests.

1. Generate Booking Request Email to Calendar Owner
2. Calendar owner can approve or deny the request.
3. The customer would receive a booking confirmation email if the time slot was approved.
4. The calendar would show the approved time slot as unavailable on the front end or just show the time slots that ARE available.
5. Back end should allow configuration for business hours, holidays, black out dates, customer confirmation/rejection email communications.
6. If you have multiple employees, there should be a company calendar with individual calendars for each employee

If something like this is not available using a combination of the available plugins, it would be a great addition to the Jevents Offering and certainly worth paying for. You may also want to consider working with one of the companies that have an established Booking Component already done and see if they are willing to adapt their component to use the Jevents Tables as an option. Just an idea to make the best calendar option for Joomla even better! :)

Thanks for allowing me to publicly think through all of us and for any help or guidance you may have.

Thanks
David

Hi David,

It's a tricky scenario. It has been done to an extent but it's down to how complicated it needs to be.

Carlos for instance is doing a JEV Approval plugin, which simply allows creating events which could be bookings.

I am actually speaking with a Client personally about a booking setup for their SPA since I rebuilt their website.

Do you have a timeframe in mind?

Many thanks
Tony

Thanks Tony

My needs are immediate so I am going to use an existing booking component, I'm evaluating a few of them now. However, if this functionality were to be added to Jevents, I would switch to it in a heartbeat.

Happy to assist in any way I can in regards to design, testing, QA etc if ever needed.

Thanks again
David

Hey David,
any news on the appointment option for jEvents? I'm in a negotiations with a client to making an meditation sessions appointments and I think the Spa canter appointment system can work as well. I want to build its complete events system on jEvents but I miss this add-on.

Thanks,
Gorast
