Table reservation

Hello, I'm trying to set up a sandbox to show my client how we can use your plugin to build a restaurant's booking system.

Guests should be able to select a TABLE and choose the booking TIME.

We accept reservations every day from 7:30pm to 21:30pm.

When a table is booked, it will not be available for the rest of the evening for other guests.

This seems to be simple, but I have an additional rule I'm struggling with.

We must accept a maximum of 3 reservations every 15 minutes from 19:30 to 21:30.

So, I was trying to set up the sandbox in this way:

- SERVICES = Time slots (eg. 19:30, 19:45, 20:00, 20:15, etc etc);

- STAFF MEMBERS = Tables (Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, etc etc);

- I Activated Group Booking add-on to be able to set a maximum number of booking for services ("time slots" in my example). I set it to 3.

Unfortunately this isn't work because I'm still able to book more than 3 tables for every time slot.

What's wrong with my set up?

How would you build it?

Thanks
