Operating Guidelines
•Rooms can only be res erved, verified, or cancel le d up to 3 months, or 90 days,
in advance. If the current day is May 5, reservations may be sche duled up to and
including August 5th. If the current day is November 30, reservations may be
placed up to and including Febr uary 28 (or 29 on leap year).
•Room reservat ions must be made f or a spe cific day and time. It is not possibl e,
therefore, to reserve a room for Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays without
making a separate request for each day individually.
•Rooms are reserved in half-hour intervals. For example, if you want a
conference room from 10:20-10:40, the reservation will be made from 10:0011:00.
•Rooms may not be reserved across days. In other words, you cannot reserve a
room starting before midnight of one day and ending after midnight of the
following day. All reservations must end by 11:30 p.m.; otherwise, they would
end at midnight of the next day.
•Reservations are made and maintained by your identification number. If an
employee is leaving the company, all reservations made using that person’s
identification number must be deleted before the number is removed from the
employee d atabase. A reservation in the system associated with an ID number
that is no longer in the empl oyee da tabase ca nnot be re mov ed from Conference Room Scheduler.
•Confere nce Room Sc he dul er can be set up to work with 3-, 4-, or 5-digit room
numbers and adjusts the messages displayed on the D
accommodate the difference in length. One way that it adjusts the rest of the
message is to change the month not ation from a 3- to a 2-digit length. This gui de
includes D
term
messages in the procedur al descri ptions and us es a 4-digit room
number and a 2-digit month notation.
