Using the Event Booking System - a quick trick

Hi Team,

I was just talking to a colleague about something on the event booking system and we realised that we use the system completely differently and that this is a quick and easy way of looking to see how many people are booked in to a session and if there's space still, WITHOUT having to click into each event. I find this particularly helpful when I'm looking for the next available Tech Help appointment. 

You may already do this, but if you don't it might save you some minutes on desk. 

So when you've logged in, click on 'Calendar View', circle in PINK

Make sure you're looking at the right month. It's easy to change months using the links at the top.

Then you just need to use the mouse to hover on the link to the event. A cool little popup will open which gives you all the information about the event including the age range, how many are booked in and how many spaces are still available.
 Then when you're ready to book in, you can just click on the title as usual and book the person in. voila!

You may want to click on the pictures to see the detail.
If you want me to show you in person, I'm more than happy to, just grab me next time I'm on desk.

Cool. I hope this is helpful. :)
