Subset of rules that only applies to a parent rule

I would like to define main rules that let the user define e.g. a date/time range, and then have sub rules that apply only to that date/time range.

To cope with seasonal changes in opening hours and similar.

Scenario:
“In january, open store every weekday from 12-14, and in february open store every weekend from 10-14”:

Main rule 1: Between 1.1.20 and 31.1.20
Subset rule of main rule 1: Every monday to friday from 12:00-14:00

Main rule 2: Between 1.2.20 and 28.2.20
Subset rule main rule 2: Every saturday to sunday from 10:00-14:00

    Hi there,

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    This is already achievable in WooCommerce Bookings today using availability rules with type “Date range with time” — each rule combines a date range with specific time-of-day hours, so you can define separate schedules for different seasons on the same product.

    For example:
    – Rule 1: Date range 1 Jan – 31 Jan, time 12:00-14:00, weekdays, Bookable.
    – Rule 2: Date range 1 Feb – 28 Feb, time 10:00-14:00, weekends, Bookable.

    Bookings evaluates rules top-down, so order them with the higher-priority rules first.

    Marking this one as completed. Thanks again!
