New workshop "service" product type

Would it be possible to have a new product type (or add parameters to existing non-inventory products) to give a job a pre-determined amount of workshop time. For example, you could create a product for a Silver Service and give it a work shop time of 3 hours. Then when it's booked in it automatically creates a block of three hours and prevent it being dropped in to the calendar if there isn't a slot big enough.

Hi all,
My proposal for this is that we'll add a new field which can be set against items, "Workshop Time".
This will allow you to set a time value against labor items, and when the job is scheduled we'll calculate the total time based on those values - if there aren't any set, we'll default to the standard 1 hour.
We'll likely still allow for these to be adjusted as required after scheduling.
Thanks,
Suzy

Suzy Weightman another option is to assign a time to a cost for example £ = "x" time, anything within the labour department/catagory would pull this through so if you added 3 jobs from the labour category at £20 each then that will allocate on the workshop calendar time ="X times 60"

PM Hi,
That sounds like a good idea, we'd still need configuration setup for the Dept/Cat that people want to use so we're not "guessing" at the labour category.
We'd likely need to allow a list of categories as well as I think one will be too restrictive.
So we'd need a list of categories, and then a configuration setting for £/$ to Time ratio?
