Account owners can now change the outgoing email (booking confirmation) messages as needed. Change the defaault to suit your personal needs or language for your users. Simply log-in as Owner , Select the MY INFO tab. Then select the LABELS sub-tab. At the bottom of the page there is an editing area for the outgoing messages to booking users.


NF13: Booking Colour: Set-up colour codes for booking types.

Account owners can now set-up colour codes for use by bookers when making bookings.  Firstly, login as Owner. Select MY INFO then SYSTEM SETTINGS. Scroll down the page to "Booking Colour Code".  Add label and colours as required. Tick "colour whole booking widget" if the entire booking marker is to be made that color. Leave unticked and only the header gets coloured.  When colours/labels are added, and additional dropdown will appear in the booking form, where a booker can elect to colour the booking.


NF12: Localisation: Customise Labels to your local language

Account owners using the bookmeetingroom.com service in non-english speaking countries can now change the majority of the main screen labels from the English default descriptions to custom local language descriptions. Simply log-in as Owner , Select the MY INFO tab. A new sub-tab called "Labels" is now available with the available fields accessible.


NF11: Outgoing Email (Booking Confirmation)

Heretofore, booking confirmation email was sent using the bookers registered email address. As some Anti-Spam systems look at the source ip address of incoming email, some of our outgoing email ended up being percieved as SPAM by agressive anti-spam filters. For this reason all outgoing email for booking notifications are now sent out from "user-sub-domain@bookmeetingroom" using the registered email as REPLY-TO: address.


NF10: Supplies Report Updated

A new supplies report has been created in the reports section based on user feedback. Hope you find it more useful.


NF09: Supplies/Catering additional indicators

If supplies are ordered for a meeting, a [c] indicator appears in the header of that meeting to help view meeting with a supplies requirement at a glance. Clicking on the [c] symbol provides direct access to the supplies order.


NF08: Auto-Refresh of Day View/Week view pages

We have now added auto-refresh to the Day/Week View main pages to help keep the screen information up-to-date for users who keep a dedicated browser open on their computer.


NF07: Customisable Help Tab

Owners/Administrators can now create their own HELP page for users of their booking system.  Login as Owner/Administrator, select tabs: MY INFO > HELP PAGE. You can then enter your own Help information. (overwrites default information).


NF06:  Administrators can now make bookings on behalf of other Bookers

When logged in as an Administrator, a new dropdown menu appears on the booking form to allow administrators to book on behalf of other registered bookers.
This will allow for better tracking of usage by registered bookers in Reporting.


NF05:  Ordering Catering Supplies for Room Bookings

Ordering Supplies.
We have had many requests to allow ordering of supplies for booked meetings. We are happy to announce that this feature has now been added and you will notice a 'supplies' button is now visible in the booking form.

How it works

  • You can only order supplies for an existing booking.
  • To order supplies, simply edit that booking (click on the [E] ) and then click on the 'supplies" button when the edit booking form appears.
  • If a supplies list is available (has been set-up by the meeting room administrator), you will be able to select items from a 'menu' and place an order.
  • Multiple orders can be made for each booking as required. 
  • Each Order has a unique Order ID related to the original Booking ID.

How to set-up a Supplies Menu
To set-up a supplies menu, log-in as administrator and go to the 'Facilities' Tab. In this area you will find a new sub-section tab called 'Manage Supplies". In this section you can build a menu of orderable items and set-up to whom the orders should be emailed to for processing.

Report
To support administrators, we have also included an area in the 'reports' section called 'Supplies' (premium account  subscribers only)


Thank you for your patience while we added and tested this new feature and don't forget that we welcome feedback, so please do not hesitate to send us your comments to customercare@bookmeetingroom.com



NF04:  Booking Reference ID

Booking reference ID (number) is now automatically added to the 'Notes' field when a booking is made. The booking reference ID was/is included as part of your outgoing booking confirmation email, but it is useful to be able to see it when 'mouse-over' of a booking takes place.


NF03: Booking Interval Setting

By default booking invervals (slots) are in 30 minute segments. For the majority of our users, this is sufficient and simplifies administration and management. Upon a number of repeat requests by potential users we have introduced the facility to change this too 15 minute intervals. You can set the booking interval time by selecting the "My Info" tab then the "System Settings" sub-tab and selecting the option in this page.


NF02: Multiple Building Support

It is now possible to administer meeting rooms across multiple buildings for the one account. First add (set-up) the buildings to which meeting rooms are to be assigned. (Facilities -> Manage Buildings). Then Add Rooms as required and assign them to the required building. The main default home screen will show all rooms in all buildings. You can easily select a different view by selecting to show rooms in one building as required.


NF01: Who is allowed to Book what Room

When adding a new 'Booker' you can select which rooms they are allow booking rights to. By default every new booker has rights to book all available rooms.
