Use case: making appointment 3 days from now that involves four clients, 1 will pay for all. To smooth things over, right now it is notes notes notes on every appointment, maybe tags or client alerts too to make receptionist remember to do this, but they might miss all of that, especially because it's a rowdy group coming in. And worst the one who is paying might be the last to be done and the others might pay individually on accident not knowing it is a gift.

All this normal level of fail would be solved if the more efficient receptionist who was making the appointment had the chance to set the group booking up prior to the appointment day.
