Booking / Reservation / Appointment System

You can display a calendar for your customers to select a date and time slot as shown below.

To display a calendar on your order form, go to the Form editing page, then navigate to the 'Date & Time Slots' tab.

Turn on the 'Date & Time Slots' switch.

In the 'Overview' section, we can see the preview of our calendar. This display is the same as what customers see in the form as well.

Go to 'Availability Setup' to set up the days and time slots that your customers can choose.

Availability Setup

In Availability Setup, you can see a display like the one below.

In Availability Setup, you can set the Cut-off Time, Future Days, Normal Time Slot Hours, Slot Duration, Time Gap Between Next Slot, as well as the option to enable Break Time.

  • Cut-Off Time (options: hours / days): This is the time in hours or days. You can set it to prevent bookings on the same day by setting a 1-day 'cut-off time (day)', or a distance to the next hour by setting a 1-hour 'cut-off time (hour)'. This function is to avoid bookings at the end of the time. If you don't want a cut-off time, leave it as 0 hours.

  • Future Days: This determines how many days from today can be selected by customers.

  • Normal Time Slot Hours: You can set the opening and closing times of the shop on regular days. For example: from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.

  • Slot Duration: Set the duration for each slot.

  • Time Gap Between Next Slot: Set the gap before the next slot starts.

  • Break Time: This allows you to block out a period within a day for breaks.

Example Calculation: Cut Off 2 Days, Future Days: 7 Days. Normal Time Slot Hours: 10 am to 6 pm. Slot Duration: 30 minutes. Time Gap: 0. No Break Time. Active Days: Monday to Friday.

After you've filled in all the details, you can press Save. Then, check the 'Overview' tab to see the results.

Please use the break time feature to create longer gaps if there are different sessions.

Now you can proceed to preview your form.

Now your customers can choose a date and time that suits them. This data will be stored along with the order they submit.

Calendar View

To access this page, you can visit https://orderla.my/admin/calendar.

On the Calendar display, you can filter according to the form you desire. You can click on the date number on the calendar.

For example, clicking on the number 11 on the calendar will display all orders for that date at the bottom.

When the order is clicked, you can view details about that order on the right-hand side.
