Reservations

Reserve time on your equipment, get it approved, and see every reservation on one calendar.

Equipment calendar in Reservation mode with the new reservation dialog and a reservation details pop-up

Overview

Book equipment time in advance

A reservation books one piece of equipment for a set start and end time, with a reason. Each request goes to an approver before it is confirmed.

Reservations appear on the same equipment calendar as preventive maintenance and SPC, so everyone sees when equipment is free.
