Group & Filter Rooms

Venue Groups: Organising and Filtering Your Bookable Spaces

If your facility has more than a handful of bookable spaces, displaying all of them simultaneously on the scheduling grid can get unwieldy quickly. MIDAS addresses this through venue groups - a way to organise your spaces into logical categories so you can view and manage them more easily.

Creating Venue Groups

Venue groups are completely flexible. You might group rooms by floor, by building, by type (meeting rooms, training rooms, event spaces), or by department. Each room belongs to one group, and you can create as many groups as you need.

Once your groups are set up, they appear as filter options on the scheduling grid. Selecting a group shows only the rooms in that category, reducing clutter and making it easier to see availability at a glance for the spaces you actually care about.

Controlling User Access by Group

User permissions in MIDAS include the ability to restrict which venue groups a user can see and book. This is useful when different administrators are responsible for different areas - an IT administrator managing computer suites does not need to see sports facilities in their grid.

Floor Plans Work With Groups

Each venue group can have its own floor plan image. This means each floor or area of your building can have a separate visual layout, with clickable spaces that users can select to make a booking. Groups and floor plans work together to make the visual booking experience intuitive.
