Classroom booking System

[pottski]

Hi there,

Just set this up for our school as MRBS was causing us issues, it works well, however i have one question:

Can the Bookings page be made to be viewable by people not logged in, so then they caa see if a room is free before they log in?

Cheers

Classroombookings? Short answer is 'no' for the current (1.0) version; but that will be included in the new version.

Ok, thanks I can't wait for v2 to be released!

Just got this installed today and it is 100% what I've been looking for! Any news on v2? Thanks again!

Just out of interest, will V2 tie into AD? We are looking at starting to movw to 2008 R1 & R2 over the summer, but our current bookng system Devizes which works really well on our 2003 servers will not work on the Server 2008 R1 or R2 x64 at all.

Thanks

It will authenticate via AD/LDAP by looking up the supplied username & password. If that's your definition of "tie", then yes. But it doesn't automatically pull in the user via the "integrated windows authentication" feature of IIS.

Thanks. Have you got a rough time on when v2 will be out? and will it work on 2008 r2?

Hopefully within the next 6 months. I've not tested it with Server 2008 yet but it's on the cards.

Webman,

i have had to reinstall due to a server move, now when i try to see the bookings area it says: 'no week configured please contact your administrator' yet all my weeks are set up. please help!

[webman]

@pottski: Even when you select a date from the calendar you know a week is configured with? Is the server date & time correct? Is it set up to connect to the right database? Is all data in the new DB since the move?

[pottski]

@webman: yes to all the above however i have noticed the week start dates are not the monday of a week ( as the description says) but a sunday is this an issue?

[webman]

Which week start dates - in the pop-up calendar on the bookings page? That's always got Sunday as the start of the week.

If you go to Week Cycle > [edit a week], do those dates correspond with mondays or sundays?

[pottski]

@webman thanks for the help, there was an issue with the sql databases time and date which was causing an issue with other databases as well.

Does anyone have any current way to import a sims export into MRBS?

or a free room booking system that could?

Basically, trying to remove the manual entry part of room bookings at the start of each term, and would love a way to take a SIMS export and whack it into the MRBS system we have, but no current way is known.

Thanks in advance
