Time Slot Picker

Booker25 comes with a Time Slot Picker component which is available for record pages.
This component allows the user to quickly pick an available time slot, and create a reservation.

Adding the Time Slot Picker to a Record Page

1. Go to a record page, click on the gear icon in the top right corner, and click ‘Edit Page’.

2. Drag the Time Slot Picker component onto the page.

   

3. Select a Reservation Type. This will influence a couple things, such as the time slot duration and the displayed fields. More on this in the next section.

   

4. (Optional) Select a list of children that should drive the time slots. If left empty, the record itself will drive the time slots. More on this in the next section.

5. (Optional) Enter the name of a flow that should be run before the form is displayed to the user. This is useful to set visible or invisible values on the reservation to be created. More on this in the next section.

Configuration options

1. Reservation Type

• Selecting a reservation type is required.

• The fieldset defined on the reservation type controls which fields are shown to the user.

• The reservation generated after clicking ‘Save’ will have the selected reservation type.

• The duration defined on the reservation type controls the duration of the time slots that are being offered to the user. If the reservation type has no duration, the time slot duration falls back to a default of 60 minutes.

2. Children to search through

• Defines which resources (or other dimensions) will be used to generate available time slots from.

• If left empty, the record that the Time Slot Picker is on will be user to generate available time slots from.

• If multiple resources are available for the selected time slot, when saving the system will select one of them to save the reservation in.

3. Reservation pre-creation flow to run

• If filled in, this flow will be executed after selecting a time slot, before showing the fields to the user.

• This can be used to prepopulate visible fields, or to set invisible fields that will be stored on the reservation after saving.

• The flow is expected to have a variable named reservation of type B25__Reservation__c available for both input and output. A template flow, with this variable already present, is included in the Booker25 package and can be easily cloned.
