I have requirement on seat booking.

Hi Team,

 

I have a requirement involving a 16-seat table. Out of these, I want to book only 8 seats and leave the remaining 8 seats available without affecting them.

 

Currently, when using the map, the behavior is that once seats are booked, the entire table is automatically marked as booked (shown in red). However, the client’s expectation is different. If only 8 seats are booked, the table should still appear as available (in green), indicating that the remaining 8 seats can still be reserved. Only when all 16 seats are fully booked should the table turn red.

Have you encountered a similar requirement before? Is this feasible to implement? Please share your inputs.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I assume you have the table as one space in the system?
That is your problem, indicate every seat as an own space and then it will work

Hi @pschmiedel,

You are correct—this is a single space in the system. Is it possible to handle this by specifying the number of attendees on the reservation page (e.g., 8 out of 16)? This way, the remaining 8 seats can still be shown as available instead of marking the entire table as booked.

Please let me know if this approach is feasible.

Hi Sakeena,
the number is IMO only referring to manage the capacity.

I would create a neighborhood (so it is easy to finde these tables) and then create every seat at the table as an individual space and all must be reservable = true.

Disadvantage is, that in order to book 6 seats you need to reserve them all one by one. But of course you can also make less space. Like group 4, 6 or 8 into one space ...instead of the 16 you have now.
