Set Seating Duration by Party Size
Different party sizes need different amounts of time at the table. You can create rules that automatically adjust the seating duration.
Create a seating duration rule:
- Go to Bokning → Inställningar → Skift & Tider
- Under Sittlängd per gästantal, click Lägg till regel
- Enter:
- Min gäster – e.g. 1
- Max gäster – e.g. 2
- Sittlängd (minuter) – e.g. 90 minutes
- Gäller för skift – select Alla skift, see the limitation below
- Click Spara regel
Example durations to adapt to your service:
| Party size | Duration |
|---|---|
| 1–2 guests | 90 min |
| 3–6 guests | 120 min |
| 7–10 guests | 150 min |
| 11+ guests | 180 min |
How it works: The system matches guest count against the rules. Without a match, it uses Standard sittlängd (minuter) under Grundinställningar, otherwise 120 minutes.
Limitation: A rule’s shift selection currently does not reliably restrict which booking uses it. A general rule takes priority over a shift-specific one. Use Alla skift and avoid overlapping guest-count ranges. Check the calculated duration when creating a booking; the shift’s own duration field is not used as the fallback.
