Tutorial Video Transcript

Hello and welcome to MIDAS tutorials.

In this tutorial I'm going to show you how you can book continuously across dates, that is a booking that starts on one day and runs continuously until another day.

So I'll go to add bookings and we're currently on the 1st of June, and let's say we want a booking that runs from the 1st of June till the 4th of June.

So we hold down the ctrl key so we can select multiple dates from the calendar and we click on the 4th, and you'll see because I've got exactly two dates selected, there is a "Book between" box that has appeared.

Now if I click that, then when I add this booking it will be from the start time on the 1st of June until the end time on the 4th of June.

If I don't have the "Book Between" option selected, I will simply make two bookings, one on the 1st of June and one on the 4th of June.

So I'll select "Book Between" and we'll say the booking is going to start at 4 pm on the 1st of June and it's going to run until 11 am on the 4th.

We'll put the name of the client in - let's have John Smith and we'll select our venue so let's do this in Room 2, and we click "Check Availability & Book".

And you can see on the booking availability screen, the days and times show when our booking is running from, and you'll see that it's currently available.

So we click "Book All Available".

And you'll see there's our booking there, and if I hover over it it will show us the start and end times of that - and as you can see it spans multiple days.

If I increase the number of days showing the booking grid, let's go for 7 days - you can then see our booking starting on the 1st and running continuously until 11 am on the 4th.
