Approvals

Approval, when central control matters

Approval is optional and switched on in one place. New and changed bookings then wait for the booking office - already holding their room - until it confirms or refuses them.

Tick, decide, done

The list holds exactly the bookings that wait for a decision, earliest date first, with when, what, rooms and people, and who booked it. Tick them - or all of them at once - and decide.

Three decisions

ButtonWhat happens
ConfirmThe bookings are accepted and appear everywhere at once.
Deny, keep bookingThe person is told no, but the booking stays, holding the room while somebody sorts it out.
Deny and deleteRefused and removed. WBS asks first; this cannot be undone.

One letter per person

Send a letter to the person (on by default) tells each owner what was decided - one letter per person, however many of their bookings were in the batch. A sentence of your own can be added: the hall is being repainted that week turns a refusal into an answer. Untick it when clearing an old backlog.

  • A waiting booking is seen only by its owner and the administrators
  • It already holds its room, so nobody else can book the same hour while it waits
  • A changed booking waits again; the room stays held
  • A trusted person's bookings can skip the queue
