Force starts onto a fixed step

Offision replaces the free timeline with a slot list when a schedule enforces fixed start steps — so 9:07 is not a bookable start.

How fixed time slots work

Turn on Restrict booking start times to fixed steps on the schedule, then set the Allowed step on each open time range. The booking form becomes a list of slots, not a free timeline. The step fixes the start, not the length — longer bookings take several slots in a row. Outlook and Google meetings that miss the grid can be allowed or declined.

Common questions

Can Offision force fixed booking start times?

Yes. The step lives on the schedule's time range. The form shows slots only, and calendars draw the grid as faint bands.

Bookings ignore the timetable

People still book at 9:07, on a public holiday, or after the building is locked — because the diary is a free timeline and the estate's real hours live in someone's head.

Put open hours on the schedule the room carries

Offision closes the booking form when the schedule says the building is closed — so late slots do not land after lock-up.

Close public holidays on the same schedule

Offision closes holiday dates on the booking schedule, so the diary does not treat a closed day as a weekday.

Use suggested times only where the grid is optional

Offision suggested times are hints. Where starts must align, use fixed steps instead — the two are alternatives.
