# Group appointments

> **Purpose:** Let multiple customers book the **same time slot** for one service (classes, workshops, training sessions). You control how many people can join each session using **Capacity**.

### 👥 How group appointments work

A service becomes a **group appointment** when its **Capacity is greater than 1**.

* **Capacity = maximum participants per time slot**
* Customers can book until capacity is full
* Once full, that time slot disappears (or becomes unavailable)

📌 Example: Capacity = 10 → up to 10 customers can book the same 9:00–10:00 session.

**Capacity Rules**

* Total participants = Customer + Guests
* Maximum guests = Service capacity – 1

### 🧪 Example

**Service:** Yoga Class\
**Price:** **$50 per class**\
**Capacity:** **8 participants**

If a customer wants to book the class for a group:

* They can select up to **7 guests**.
* Total participants: **8 people**
* **Total cost:** 8 × $50 = **$400**

Pricing will automatically multiply based on the number of participants.&#x20;
