The Timed service panel is made available if the Timed service option is selected in the Class field of the Properties panel.

The Timed service panel is used to specify the properties of timed services, i.e. those menu items for which the price depends on the duration of use. The panel indicates the menu item's quantity and its corresponding time interval. For example, a round of pool corresponds to 30 minutes. In addition, the panel is used to specify the table where the timed service is provided.
