Hi,
I have an annoying issue: I use bookings to setup meetings with my students in the university. The university uses SSO (yes we are so progressive). Now the thing is if a student fills in an appointment from the booking page with name, email, etc as text fields the created calendar entry is still useless and only tells me it is a "Multi Customer booking".
There is actually also in the details no option to check who made the "Project Meeting" appointment.
Could the dev team maybe just use all the filled-in fields and copy them into the calendar comments?? Better would be to have them/the name in the calendar entry title.
Thank you!
Michael

Nobody?? Anything? Not even a small word from one of the developers that this is a known or unknown issue??

@Michael_Behrischmy guess is you're viewing this from your own personal Outlook calendar and not from the MS Bookings Calendar view?
In all of my instances I can clearly see the details of the created appointments in the MS Bookings calendar view, only NOT from the Outlook calendar of the booked person.
Also, I don't think developers are actually monitoring this forum.

Hi - We finally found a solution that worked for us. I'm adding it here in case any future perplexed people stumble on this thread (like I did) in their research.
1. For us, it turned out the issue was that the service was set up as a multi-attendee booking. If you create the service as a single-attendee (maximum of 1 attendee) instead, then the details of the booking DO show up in Outlook.
2. Curveball: Once you set up the service in Bookings as a multi-attendee service, you can't change the number back to anything less than 2 attendees. Solution: On the services tab, click on the copy icon and for this copy, you can change to 1 attendee. Then delete your multi-attendee service.
Unfortunately, this doesn't help with bookings that you really need multiple attendees for, but hopefully, it will help some people who end up on this page...
Cheers, Leanne
