Date

A daily recurrent booking made to a specified future date for a resource that belongs to a category that does not allow week-end bookings incorrectly wrote the booking for the week-end and displayed it on the weekly grid.

Fixed.

BookIt 3

Major modification to Template Management

You create templates in the same way, but now explicitly Associate them with a Resource through an Association Window. You may then Apply any number of selected templates at once.

TemplateAssociation

The Association also detects if any resources are linked to a selected resource, and offers to allow that resource to use the same template. See MM Proj Acer in the above screen shot, linked to same template as the parent vresource, Room G1.

When applying Templates you may tag all or some to be applied in one action.

NetBookIt 3

In the Category (or Daily) View of Bookings, until now, 4 resources have been displayed in one screen.
This can now be changed on the screen itself by users.

 

The number of columns has a maximum of 20. The spin box will not appear for those categories with less than 5 resources. If cookies are enabled, the settings are remembered between sessions, specific to each category.

NetBookIt 3

Upon making a booking, most fields are "remembered" for 1 minute if making subsequent bookings.


If Linkage.tps file didn't exist, the NetBookIt booking window would hang for no apparent reason. Fixed.

"Session locked.. " message came upon the booking window if Group was left empty and it was not a drop list. Fixed.

Update Booking window timeout has been dropped to 5 minutes from 10. If no booking is made in this time the window closes.

BookIt 3 - The Utility Menu option, Check Data Integrity will change all Staff Full Names to "Surname, First Name" format and will check that names (not just codes) exist. This is important in NetBookIt which uses Full Name in the Staff drop list.

8/2/2011 BookIt 3 Change to recurrent bookings:- Constraints regarding how far ahead a user is permitted to book a resource do not now apply to a user logged in as administrator.

BookIt 3 and NetBookIt 3

Email Options

Email: If you set the Category options to Email to another without ticking the person making the booking (as shown above), the Other was sent an email, but without the booking details.

Bad Email

Also, in NetBookIt under any settings, the Reason was not sent.

Both faults rectified.

BookIt 3 and NetBookIt 3

Days Ahead bookings allowed was behaving differently in BookIt and NetBookIt Daily and Weekly views. In one case it was using calendar days but other cases using timetable days; sometimes it counted the current day in the count, other times not.

We have standardized the behaviour to be based on calendar days alone, not including the current day in the count.

In a school context, if you set the limit as 14 days, staff will not be able to book across term breaks now.

Days Ahead

27 Oct, 2010

BookIt 3

Staff lookup table has sort headers to make it easier to find staff by surname or first name, rather than just user code.

BookIt 3 and NetBookIt 3

Constraint on Category: Notice Period Required
If it was set to 1 day you couldn't book for tomorrow after 12 noon. To make it equivalent to the old Prohibit Same day booking, it has been changed to 11 pm.

NetBookIt 3

Staff lookup table on the booking form is now sorted by surname rather than user code.

14 Oct, 2010 Added 10 min time out to the Booking update window in NetBookIt. After that time the window closes and another user can book that resource. Makes it consistent with Windows BookIt.
8 June, 2010 First Release
