Setting Occurrence Against Bookings

Mohammed Jamal Updated by Mohammed Jamal

When creating a Booking, it is possible to make a cyclic booking via the Occurrence tab.

  1. Select value using the Booking Takes Place Every drop-down. This is defaulted to 1 week but goes up to 52 weeks.
  2. For occurrence pattern beyond 1 week, the Next Due To Take Place date field is enabled. This is a mandatory field and the date cannot be set to a date in the past. 
  3. On a Public Holiday is defaulted to Does Occur and can be changed to Does Not Occur.
  4. The First Occurrence and Last Occurrence dates are optional but must be logical if populated. These dates allow a scheduled booking to occur regularly but only for a set period, rather than indefinitely. The dates are used during the Express Book process. If the process period does not require a scheduled booking based on these dates, it will not be created. 

All Occurrence dates will prevent illogical dates and force the correct date to be selected based on the Start Day. For example, it is not possible to select a date for a booking with Monday as a Start Day that does not fall on a Monday.
