15 and 30 minute intervals
Hi, I have been using Checkfront for several months now. Our business is an education centre offering tours for school excursions, as well as accommodation.
I am very happy with the system however one aspect is very very annoying - the fact that we cannot allocate 15 and 30 minute intervals i.e we have a school arrive on site to commence their tour at 9:30 am and it runs for 2.5hrs - we can't schedule them!! Same with allocating their lunch at 12:30 or 12:45pm - it is crucial for us to be able to do this in order for us to print reports for our staff rosters and kitchen requirements, otherwise it is causing us to have to double handle and retype these schedules manually. This is very time consuming and unnecessary when it should be fairly simple to allow us to do this through the system.
Looking through the request history it seems this has been a common issue for some time now and I cannot understand why it has not been implemented yet?
Hoping this is on the horizon soon!
