# Configure Bundle & Multiday Services With Pre-Selected Dates > Set up structured course and program bundles with pre-determined session dates. ## How to Configure Bundle Services & Multiday Services With Pre-Selected Dates Cowlendar allows you to create services that automatically select specific dates or a fixed number of timeslots when customers open the booking widget. This is especially useful for: * **Bundles of classes** with predetermined dates and times * **Multiday reservations** that must be booked for a fixed number of days, such as holiday rentals This guide explains how to set up each scenario step-by-step. ### Example 1: A Bundle of 4 Classes With Specific Dates & Times If you offer a set of classes (e.g., 4 lessons across fixed dates and times), you can configure a **Bundle Service** where the booking widget automatically selects the required slots. ### Step 1 — Create a Bundle Service 1. Go to **Apps** and click on **Cowlendar** 2. Go to **Services > Add New Service** 3. Choose **Bundle service** 4. Add all four classes with their exact dates and times ![](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/671a5e245d077ea954b2cd4c/import/1791976332729-Untitled_design_18_.webp) ### Step 2 — Configure the Bundle’s Availability Settings Go to the **Availability** tab of the service. #### 1. Set how many timeslots customers must pick Under **How many timeslots should your customer pick?**, select: ➡️ **Fixed number of slots** This tells the system that customers must book the complete set of classes. #### 2. Enable Pre-selection Options When you select _Fixed number of slots_, two additional options appear: * **Preselect first 2 slots when opening the booking widget** * **Switch to confirmation form after pre-selecting the slots**

Go to **Apps** and click on **Cowlendar** 2. Go to **Services > Add New Service** 3. Choose **Multiday service** 4. Add all four classes with their exact dates and times ![](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/671a5e245d077ea954b2cd4c/import/1791976421476-image_12_.webp) ### Step 2 — Configure Multiday Availability Settings Go to the **Availability** tab. #### 1. Set minimum and maximum days To force the customer to book a specific number of days: ➡️ **Set Minimum days = Maximum days** Example: * Min days: **7** * Max days: **7** This ensures the service can only be booked as a 7-day stay. #### 2. Pre-selection Options As with bundle services, you will see: * **Preselect the dates when opening the booking widget** * **Switch to confirmation form after pre-selecting the dates** ![](https://orka-chat.fra1.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/prod/help/671a5e245d077ea954b2cd4c/import/1791976421247-PRE_SELECTED_DAYS.webp) ### ✔️ How These Options Work for Multiday Reservations #### Option A: Only “Preselect first 2 slots” enabled * The system preselects the first 2 available slots * Customer must click **Continue** > **ℹ️ Info** > > Useful when you want customers to confirm the dates before moving forward. #### Option B: Both options enabled * Dates are preselected * Customer is instantly redirected to the confirmation form > **✅ Success** > > Ideal for holiday packages or fixed events with mandatory dates. > **🚨 Danger** > > If the price set for the Shopify product should not be multiplied by each day, make sure to enable the Fixed quantity option in the Customization tab ### Additional Tips * For bundles, always ensure all class times are added correctly to the **Timeslots** section. * For multiday services, double-check that the holiday period does not overlap with other services using the same equipment unless intentional. * Use a custom confirmation message to remind customers that dates are fixed and cannot be changed. ### ❓ FAQ #### 1.
