Bookings & Services

Use Services when the customer is booking time, staff or a resource

Not every hospitality charge is a product. A massage, laundry service, consultation or managed activity has operational attributes such as duration, staff assignment, resource availability and commission. Menulyn Services keeps those workflows separate from ordinary stock and non-stock products.

Hospitality services booking and staff assignment
Why it matters

The workflow matters as much as the feature

A non-stock product simply sells without inventory consumption. A service often needs a booking, time slot, responsible staff member or physical resource. Treating those as the same thing makes availability and staff accountability difficult to manage.
