Features of the Room Booking System

The Room Booking System supports Single, Bi Weekly and X Day (8 day, 11 day, etc.) timetables. When using Bi Weekly and X Day timetables, the Room Booking System automatically skips holidays which are entered. So on the return of the holiday, the System selects the correct week or day to start on.

We are now able to import data from SIMS .net onto the Room Booking System.

Features for the Teacher
