That's what I thought

Hi There and thank you for your reply.

Yes that is exactly what I thought and explained to the client using almost the same words and going through the information in the same link. In fact we had open tickets on double bookings that I said would not occur once we moved to 8.5. Anyway I thought I'd give it a try. If you book via the calendar then no problems, and if at least one person books via the calendar then no one else can book the same room at the same time. All good so far.

So what I did was book a room at a certain tine directly in the reservation db. The room got marked with a green tick. I then re-entered the reservation database again, entered new reservation, searched for a room at the same time and it brought up the same room as being available, so I saved it and sure enough it was booked again by me for the same time and room.
I used another user id and did the same thing and yes it booked it again so now it was triple booked.

What it looks like is if you book via the reservation db it does not update the busy time, however if you do it via the calendar then ok.

I will review the info on upgrading the reservation db from 6 to 8 to make sure I didn't miss something. It may very well be something in this upgrade but I just can't seem to find what is wrong.

Cheers
Peter
