Booking Process - Multiple Booking in Same Day
Description / Background
This feature allows users to make multiple bookings on the same day. However, users must pay for their current booking or wait until the buffer time has passed before creating the next booking. Users can book at the same restaurant if their last booking status was "arrived" or the buffer time has already passed. The default buffer time is 2 hours, but Admins can adjust this time in the Admin Settings. This feature was developed to cater to the growing demand for users who wish to make multiple bookings on the same day. It provides flexibility for users planning multiple dining experiences and enhances user satisfaction.
