Context	Currently, some restaurants are implementing the "Minutes in Advance Dine in Close" feature. This feature serves to set the latest time users can make a reservation.
Problem	In some cases, restaurants want to allow users to make reservations even if they exceed the available schedule. the use of positive and zero values in the time settings only allows reservations before the available schedule. the Minutes in Advance Dine in Close feature doesn't have the ability to order exceed the available schedule. This poses a constraint as some users may wish to book last-minute slots or even exceed the available schedule. Example: Available Slot ➝ 7 PM Minutes in Advance Dine in Close ➝ 15 minutes Result : User can choose 7 PM slot when the current time is no later than 6.45 PM The current time is 6.00 PM . So, user can choose 7 PM slot (Available) The current time is 6.50 PM . So, user can't choose 7 PM slot (Not Available)
Solution	Enable Minutes in Advance Dine in Close to allow users to book even exceed the available schedule. This would involve permitting the use of negative numbers to indicate booking times exceeding the available schedule.
Name of Feature	Maximizing Minutes in Advance Dine in Close
Objective	Allow users to book last-minute or even exceed the available schedule Allow admin to set number to minus that indicates users can book exceed the available schedule
Gains	Users will feel more at ease knowing they can make reservations even exceed the available schedule, thereby improving the overall user experience Restaurants can enhance users satisfaction and build stronger relationships Restaurants will get the more chances to get more bookings
Pains	Restaurants may be concerned about losing control over their schedules if users are allowed to make reservations exceed the available schedule. This could potentially lead to issues in managing capacity or food preparation. Increase the complexity of order management for restaurants, necessitating adjustments in operational processes.
