To add a booking:

1. Click the Add button on the Admin Commands ribbon.

   

   A new entry is added to the Bookings grid.

   If no bookings records currently exist for the selected organisation, you can enter details directly into the Details section without having to click the Add button.

   

2. Complete the fields in the Details tab.

   

The fields on the Details tab are described in the following table.

This field	Holds this information...
Course Code	The course code bookings are to be made against. Enter the course code or click the Search button to display the Course Search window, where they can select the required course. Only courses that have the Available for Block Booking check box selected in Curriculum Details are available for selection in the Course Search.
Occurrence	The calendar occurrence for the course. When the occurrence is selected, the child/grandchild courses linked to the course are displayed in the Included UIOs pane.
Course Name	The course name.
Course Location	The course location.
Total Places	The total number of places on the course. If you enter a number in the Total Places field that exceeds the number of places currently available on the course, an error is displayed on saving. It is possible to amend the total places after saving. The Indicative Total Cost and UIO statistics fields are then updated accordingly. You cannot change the number of total places to a number that is smaller than the number of enrolled learners. Enrolment records must first be removed.

   The remaining fields are populated automatically.

4. Click Save.

Use the Included UIOs pane in the Bookings section to reserve places on child courses at the same time as on the parent course. This provides the benefit of not having to repeat the process for every course occurrence of a structured curriculum delivered over multiple courses.

When the Bookings section is displayed for the selected organisation, the Bookings grid shows only the parent reservations for the organisation. When a booking is selected in the table, users can view the details of the booking, or the list of enrolments against it, by clicking the Details tab or the Enrolments tab respectively.

When the required course code and occurrence are entered for the booking, the corresponding course occurrences are displayed in the Included UIOs pane.

The parent course is displayed at the top of the pane, with the children and grandchildren listed underneath. Mandatory courses are selected and cannot be deselected. Non-mandatory courses can be selected and deselected as required.

The number in brackets adjacent to the course is the number of places available after entering the number of attendees on the Details tab.

When saving the booking, the number of places specified is booked on:

• The selected course
• The mandatory children of that course
• Any optional children selected

When there are enrolments associated with a booking, the booking is locked and cannot be changed regardless of the progress code of those enrolments. This prevents the booking from becoming editable when all the enrolments have been progressed to complete.
