Enhance Appointment Buffers in Zoho Bookings

There was previously a long-standing feature request related to enhancing the way appointment buffers work in Zoho Bookings, but it looks like the original post has been deleted. I am therefore adding a new request that Zoho Bookings adjust how appointment buffers work.

They should:

1) Be applied to all appointments, including those in linked calendars, not just appointments created directly in Zoho Bookings. I currently link a Google Calendar to my Zoho Bookings account but there are no buffers applied to the events that are in Google Calendar.

2) It should be possible to apply a buffer both before and after an appointment and prevent clients from booking appointments in time slots that would overlap with these buffers. In my case, I want to ensure that I have at least 1-hour between any two calendar events, so the buffers need to be applied to all existing calendar events and Zoho Bookings appointments when determining the available time slots for new appointments.

This issue has been outstanding for over a year so it would be appreciated if it could be made more of a priority.

Thank you,
Kent
