MS Bookings - recurring appointments
tezenez
I know this post is a bit old, but I have found a way to use Bookings, and set up a Recurring Meeting.
Book your time in Bookings. Once the event has been added to your calendar, right click the entry in the calendar, an select "Duplicate". You can then use the options in the pop up window to make the entry recur on a schedule you choose, until an end date you choose. Make sure you save by clicking "Send" in the upper left.
- This no longer works =((
Absolutely unfathomable to me that they would remove this feature. We are trialing Bookings as a calendar for our driving service and this is yet another basic feature that is just missing from the software. Not just missing, but purposefully removed??????
(the other major issue we are having is the software not showing the customers address in the customer info for an appointment, even though their address is in the saved customer info in bookings)
- I think what is needed is for this to be automated. For example in my organisation, coaching sessions are bookable. By default we would like to book 6 recurring sessions - one per week for six weeks. It would be great to build something like this into the system. Our problem is that, for example: Janet books me for Tuesday at 2pm, but I'm busy when that booking is recieved so I can't make it recurring for 6 weeks. John then books me for the following Tuesday at 2pm and when I am available, I see both bookings and have to rescedule or cancel John. Now spread that over 20 coaches with incredibly full timetables and it quickly becomes a problem.
