INTRODUCTION

  • Feature Summary: System users can create a bypass rule that temporarily bypasses booking restrictions if a condition (X hours before a court time) is met.

  • Use Cases: Use this rule to help maximize facility utilization by temporarily bypassing membership-type restrictions and allowing last-minute bookings for unreserved courts or equipment. It is possible to create different bypass rules for different membership types.

PREREQUISITES

This tool has a direct impact on a member/player's ability to access facilities. System users should have a clear understanding of club policies.

These restrictions are one part of the Restriction rules, which in turn is part of a membership type.


SETUP REQUIREMENTS

The first step is to open a membership type.

  1. Log in to the admin dashboard.

  2. Go to the side menu and click MEMBERSHIPS. A new page displays.

  3. Click the Individual or Family tab.

  4. Select a membership type and click the Reservation Rules tab.

  5. Go to the Restrictions heading and click the Bypass Reservations tab.

Creating a rule

Go to the Bypass Restrictions if Time is X Hours Out heading and enter a time (hours and minutes). This rule creates a bypass booking window X hours before an unreserved slot on the scheduler opens. Any member/player with this membership type can book the court/equipment if even other conditions/rules might prevent that booking.

Common settings

The values entered in the below fields apply to all the tabs in the Restrictions table.
