Session / Function Editors

The Bulk Editor allows users to quickly detail and edit multiple sessions / functions without navigating to different pages. Please note that this feature is currently in Beta.

There are currently two areas of the system utilizing the bulk editor; these are:

  • Bulk Editor: Shows all sessions / functions within a particular booking
    • Venue > Bookings > Booking > Sessions / Function > Bulk Editor (Beta) 
      Bookign Session Editor
  • Multi Booking Session / Function Editor: Shows all sessions / functions across all Confirmed/ Definite bookings for the day
    • Venue > Bookings > Session / Function (Beta)
      Multi Booking Session Editor

Both of these editors have the same functionality, however the Multi Booking Session / Function Editor has 3 extra columns to distinguish between bookings.

  • Booking Name
  • Booking Reference
  • Booking Contact

Planned enhancements to both editors include: 

  • Keyboard shortcuts (e.g. copy/paste)
  • Save and manage custom layouts
  • 'Add' button will add a new row, instead of existing form in the side pane
  • Additional buttons to cancel unsaved changes and filter data on any conflicts
  • Change loss prevention (e.g. if web browser closes unexpectedly)
  • In-line editing of infrequently used fields
  • Copy items from feature: will be able to search for a booking, select its items and add to one or more sessions / functions
  • Save and share custom layouts

Functionality: 

The functionality and keyboard functions for both editors are described below. 

  • Can in-line edit most fields (exceptions listed below) by double-clicking on the cell or pressing the ‘Enter’ key.
  • Greyed-out columns indicate that they are not directly editable, e.g. BEO #
  • ‘Edit’ indicates that the field is not directly editable, but opens in a new pane. These are applied to fields that may have additional fields depending on the input, e.g. Space Hire Price.
  • Can select ‘Edit’ (RHS of each row) to open tabbed structure and add session / function items, e.g. menus. Any unsaved changes (for that row only) will be saved before the pane opens.
  • Click on the small blue box and drag value down to overwrite values
  • Select ‘Columns’ to enable/disable columns
  • Click on the filter icon to set filters
  • Enter text below column name to search/filter the rows

Keyboard functions: 

  • Enter = opens/closes input field 
  • Tab = moves to next field
  • Shift+ Tab = moves to previous field
  • Arrow keys = moves up, down, left, right
