Pros & Considerations

Pros:

• Fastest method for same-day or known-slot bookings.

• Minimal navigation.

Consider:

• No upfront calendar grid; best used when you already know availability.
  
  

Troubleshooting

• If a different date or staff is needed, adjust in the form before saving.

• Conflict checks rely on form view, not calendar view.
