I have tested the new rental feature. Nice, but I have one issue with it, with the way price is calculated. If a customer wants to rent a product from one day morning to the second day night he would expect to fill in the store start day "the first day" and end date "the second day" but if he do so, the price will be just for one day.
My preference would be to add time field in the start date and end date, the time can be a drop down with whole and potentionally halfs of hours, administrator would be able to set minimum and maximum time for simplicity (later whole store schedule would be nice, so excluding non-working days and different working hours per day). Then it can be for simplicity calculated per "whole days" in case rental is per days.
This would give the store a possibility to get a product back from one customer at the same day as renting it to another customer and the store knowing when it will be picked up and returned.
