Introduction
Rooms and desks can be integrated into Bookings so they can be booked by people and used.
Instructions
- Get access to Bookings and create a Bookings calendar.
- Enter your business information by going to the Business Information tab. Make sure the information is correct.
- Go to the Services tab and click Add a new service to add your first room/desk to your Bookings page. Name the service (e.g. Lab 3 – LM301) and fill out the page details. Leave the Assign staff section for later.
- Repeat step 3 for as many rooms/desks as you need to add. Under the Services tab, you should now have a list of rooms and/or desks.
- Once you have added all your rooms/desks under Services, click on the Staff tab in the sidebar. Click Add new staff.
- Instead of adding information for a staff member, enter the information for a room/desk that is listed under your Services tab:
- You must enter an email address. You can either enter a phony email address or add the email address of a shared resource (See: Integrate Rooms/Desks with Shared Resources in Bookings).
- Verify that the availability of your room/desk listed under Staff matches the availability of the room/desk with the same name listed under Services.
- When you have entered the information for the room/desk click Save changes.
- Repeat step 7 for all of the rooms and/or desks listed under Services.
- Go back to the Services tab and click on a room/desk. Click on Edits service then click on Assign Staff on the left.
- You will see a list of all of the rooms/desks you have just added to the Assign staff tab. Click on the “staff member” that matches the room/desk. For example, if you have selected Lab 3 (Service) click on Lab 3 (Staff). You should see a checkmark next to your selection.
- At the top of the page, click Save changes.
- Repeat steps 8-10 for all rooms/desks.
