How do I make a recurring booking?
Clicking on the desired time brings you into the booking screen.
Select the appropriate Repeat Type. The room/equipment will be scheduled
at the same time, until the Repeat End Date, on the days
determined by the Repeat Type.
-
A Daily repeat schedules every day.
-
A Weekly repeat schedules those days of the week that you
check under Repeat Day. For example, use Weekly repeat
to schedule the room/equipment every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday; check
those days under Repeat Day. If you check no days under Repeat Day,
the schedule will repeat on the same day of each week as the first
scheduled day.
-
An N_Weekly repeat is the same as a Weekly repeat, except
that the bookings are only made for every Nth week where N is
entered under Number of Weeks. For example, to make
a booking for every other week, use 2 for the number of weeks.
-
A Monthly repeat schedules the same day of each month,
for example the 15th of the month. If you select the 29th, 30th
or 31st of the month, then for a month where that day does not
exist the last day of that month will be used instead.
-
A Yearly repeat schedules the same month and day of the month,
for example every March 15th. If you select the 29th February, then
for those years where that date does not exist the 28th February will
be used instead.
-
Finally, a Monthly, corresponding day repeat schedules one day
each month, the same weekday and ordinal position within the month.
Use this repeat type to schedule the first Monday, second Tuesday,
or fourth Friday of each month, for example. If you have selected the 29th, 30th
or 31st of the month, i.e. the fifth weekday of a month, then for those
months where there is no corresponding fifth day, the fourth day will
be used instead. (This is a useful way of booking the last weekday in
every month).

What happens if multiple people schedule the same room/equipment?
The short answer is: The first person to click on
the Submit button wins.
Behind the scenes, the system is using a proper multi-user, multi-threaded
relational database than can handle many thousands of simultaneous users.
