Room Booking Database/Web based (.asp)

[danIT]

very very nice, makes my download look feeble!

 

:oops:

[Dageezah]

It needs a bit of tidying up - and documentation needs to be created fully - i.e guide on how to use the Nova-T/Sims import bit.

 

But as soon as it is finished I will upload all for you guys to see/use.

 

Has anyone tried to get a username/password for the SQL server for the SIMS database? I assume they will tell us to bugger off but would be handy to automate the import function so that the timetables/room info is up to date at all times.

[GrumbleDook]

They will never tell anyone who wants to tie into SIMS to bugger off ... however, they will say cough up some cash.

 

Cynical? me?

[NetworkGeezer]

I think if you approach Capita they can give you a DLL or ActiveX thingy which will allow read only access to the database.

 

Phil Neal who's the Capita director that looks after SIMS is now a member of EduGeek so perhaps he might be able to give further details.

There is a free API around, a Capita support person mentioned it in response to a support query aboutlinking to the database. It does appear to be tricky to get hold of as you have to make sure you get the right person to ask and give the right response as to why you want it. I am still trying to get it from our LEA support but this mainly becuase the person who has it is in the office about once a week and random times when he is. (though I'm sure that isn't dilerberate)

[Dageezah]

After feedback from teachers, I have improved the booking system as per the screenshot - should be able to finish off documentation and release later this week to the public - if anyone wishes to have a copy let me know.

You have some nice features dageezah. If the import isnt too much of a pain I would be interested in checking it out.

[BKGarry]

I am defenatly up for a copy, have had enough of trying to deal with Outlook Public Folders and a 2 week timetable that doesn't keep going through the half terms

 

 

Bring on your baby,

[edie209]

It looks nice I woundn't mind trying it too

:thumbup:

[SpuffMonkey]

[Jake]

I would be interested in giving it a try too, we've tried a few different solutions and none have yet been quite right.

[BKGarry]

since your talking about all the systems available, here's another one to through on the table:

[webman]

The Room Booking System is £200 per year with an initial set-up fee of £400. The total price for the first year is £600 and the following years are £200.

 

:shock:

[jazzy639]

ha lol, well we got an email offering 25% off, i think it does a lot for what it costs

[plexer]

Yes but it seems that several members offerings including webmans are free and do just as much.

Hi, I've just been reading through this thread but it appears to stop in April 06. Did the app ever get released 'cos I'd be interested in having a look. Ta

[webman]

Which app?

[Cowman]

The room booking app that Dageezah was writing

Thread stopped in early Oct. I think you did what I always do and end up kicking myself, looking at "Joined date" at the side rather than "Posted" at the top.
