Slots

Slots are not physical objects in Makeplans. It is a virtual representation of available times based on attributes from resources and services as well as various settings. So if a resource is open 8am to 4pm and selected service has interval of 60 minutes, slots will return an array of all time intervals (8am-9am, 9am-10am etc.) and indicate which resources are available.

Slots are meant for listing available times on the Makeplans booking page. You can however make bookings at any time and with any length - as long as the resource is available of course.
