Schedule Management

List available time-slots and accept bookings with the Y-Cucumber app.

After being verified as a service provider, users are required to complete relevant details for the convenience of targeted clients. To accept bookings after listing services, service providers are required to select regular available time-slots based on the days of a week.

There is a time limit for the session created, with a mandatory 15 minutes time-gap in between every session for sufficient preparation to check-in for the next session:

• Music education and collaborative musician: Time limit of 60-90 minutes per session.

• Space booking: Time limit of 60 minutes per session.

If a service provider happens to provide all three services within the Y-Cucumber platform, music education and collaborative musician share the same schedule. If the service provider provides multiple services as a music educator or collaborative musician, the schedule can be still be organised in respective terms of services but sharing the similar time-slot. For example, as a music educator, Mr M offers violin and piano classes. At the same time, he is also a chamber musician and an accompanist. Mr M can organise his schedule within his sessions but it would reflect the same schedule in all of the aforementioned sessions. Space booking on the other hand, has an independent schedule. If Mr M is also renting out a practice room while he is teaching another instrument, that would mean both schedules will overlap. Hence, it is the responsibility of the service provider to ensure that the overlapping sessions can be managed if both are booked simultaneously.

Custom date and time-slot

On certain dates of the month, in which the service provider will not be available (e.g: public holiday, vacation, personal reasons, etc.), the specific dates can be omitted via the Custom date and time-slot function.

The Custom date and time-slot also serves a purpose under circumstances in which on a particular day, some time-slot which are usually available or not available on the regular weekly schedule has a different scheduling arrangement. For example, a music educator usually teaches between 2pm to 5pm on Tuesdays, but on the second Tuesday of every month, this music educator is only available for morning time-slots. Hence, the "Custom date and time-slot" will adjust the schedule to only accept bookings for the morning session on the second Tuesday of the month.
