How to create a collective booking type
A collective booking type allows clients to book a meeting with multiple team members at the same time. It's the perfect solution for interview panels, project kick-offs, or any appointment that requires all hands on deck.

How Availability Works for Collective Bookings
Understanding the logic is simple but powerful:
- Shared Unavailability: If even one person on the team is busy at a certain time, that time slot will NOT be shown as available.
- Example: You create a collective meeting with Person A, Person B, and Person C. Person A is busy from 2-3 PM. Therefore, no client will be able to book any time slots between 2 PM and 3 PM, even if B and C are free.
This ensures that a meeting is never booked unless every required participant can attend.
