1241 TopicsAdd different attendees to a booking
Hi, I am trying to enable adding more than one attendee tog an event bookin in bookings. The service allows up to 4 attendees, but on the booking page, I can't add more people to receive the invite. How can I solve this? Sometimes, the booking is for an online meeting, and more people need to be added at the point of the reservation. Thanks!11Views0likes0CommentsMS Bookings - Staff Accepted, Still Not Bookable
I'm very new to Bookings and have just added a few staff to a shared Bookings page within the last 48 hours. All of their staff pages in Bookings still show "Not bookable (Pending for approval)" after accepting the invitation. At first I thought this might just be something that had to update overnight, but it was the same this morning. I have even re-sent one of the invitations and had the staff re-accept it, with no change. Is this a glitch with our account, permissions, etc.?3.8KViews0likes5CommentsAppointments in Bookings are no longer synchronized with Apple Calendar
Hello, since macOS Sequoia the appointments in Bookings are no longer synchronized with Apple Calendar on Mac. However, the appointments are synchronized on iOS 18.2 devices. Has anyone else had this problem?91Views4likes4CommentsBookings and manually adjusting Max Attendees
Hello. I have two services I offer on a shared booking. On the occasional booking, I want to manual adjust the number of available attendees from 6 down to a lower number. The default is set to 6 on the service page, and on the occasional service I manually adjust it down. I noticed on a booking an attendee canceled their appointment, but after that, the number of available seats went from the manually adjust 4 back to 6. 2 extra people booked before I caught it. How can I fix this? I don't want to keep creating new services for each specific situation, I just want the occasional service to be at a lower max attendee than the others. Much appreciated.17Views0likes0CommentsSet Order of Services in Bookings
Hello How can we set the order of the services on the "select service" page? The items appears to be randomly assigned into the 2 columns. Ideally we would like to set the sort order manually, if not then alpha sort would help our customers find a service in the list. Is there a way to set the sort order? Thanks!14KViews1like16CommentsAllocating staff
Hi, Does anyone use bookings where it automatically allocates a member of staff to a meeting? We are trying this but require a pattern to it. Essentially we want it to go from staff A, Staff B then Staff C. At the moment it is only going between A and B and it can be random. Is there anyway we can set it to go in a specific pattern without staff selecting the staff names? If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Many thanks in advance Grace17Views1like0CommentsNo availability on bookings
Hi All I am having a sudden persistent issue with the booking system. We have been using same link just fine, but all of a sudden no times are available for myself or the team even though the outlook calendar is clear. Everyone is just showing as unavailable. Booking page is public and all settings same to the rest of my booking pages.29Views0likes0CommentsTime zone erratically assigned
I'm using Bookings through an Education account at an R1 university. I have attempted setting up my calendar availability many different ways in Bookings, but I continue to experience the same error about which many others have complained. Unfortunately, the workaround that seems to work for business users is not an option in educational accounts. The option to "Always show time slots in business time zone" appears nowhere. This morning, I had a student book an appointment with me, thinking it was at 10a (PST), when it was actually a slot for 1pm (EST, and where we are located). The confirmation email I received showed the time as 12p (CST). This seems to be a perennial problem with Bookings, yet no one seems to have a solution for it in this particular context. We're not technically a "business," but major universities are BIG money for Microsoft. I can only imagine how much profit they are making selling their platform to a university like this, with >32k students and >12,000 employees, across all campuses. It seems like y'all might consider re-working the application code to develop a more stable solution. I never had this issue when our University still allowed us to use Google calendar with students. If someone has an answer, I will be forever in your debt.25Views0likes0CommentsMS Bookings
When I create my services and bookings, I experience two problems: Not every booking is available on the link that I am sending to others - shows no availability although I select the correct one and it work for some and not for others. Not every booking shows on "Overview" view and I have to scroll on Calendar to be able to Edit it. Again, works for some but not the others. I am doing nothing different, but the dates and it works for some but not others. Is this a common problem?17Views0likes0CommentsBookings shows available time slots even though it is booked in my calendar
I created a personal booking page. But I do not see the time slots displayed in my calendar and when I go to the booking page, all time are available completely not taking into account the meetings that are already in my calendar. Why in the name of god would you ever design a self booking function that does not look at existing meetings in the target calendar. Worked with google self scheduler and calendly and this is absolutely a non existing problem for both of these platforms. Now transitioned to 365 and I can't seem to get a simple feature as a self scheduler set up :( Attached a screenshot of all the available configuration options. So 2 questions: - I want to see the blocks in my calendar (attached an example of google self scheduler how it shows up in your calendar - it completely ignores meetings in my calendar and lets people book those slots leading to double bookings. Please help me out.473Views9likes13Comments
