Club Diaries

Club Diaries within the Clubs and Societies section allow for the Lodge to create, delete and amend bookings on behalf of members for a range of clubs and societies, using all different diary types.

There are eight different diary types, depending upon required usage. These are set up in Clubs and Society Maintenance.

The eight types of diary are:

1.    Time of Day Diary allows for facilities (such as a squash court or room) to be booked at a given time during the day, for a given length of time.

2.    Class Diary allows for ‘classes’ to be set up for a number of members to them book themselves onto (such as a Yoga class, Chess Club etc.).

3.    Daily Diary allows for members to book a facility for whole days.

4.    Weekly Diary allows members to book a facility for whole calendar weeks.

5.    Monthly Diary allows members to book a facility for whole calendar months.

6.    Half-Term Diary allows members to book a facility for whole academic half-terms.

7.    Term Diary allows members to book a facility to whole academic terms.

8.    Borrow/Hire Diary allows members to borrow items on a daily basis, such as DVD’s or bikes.

Borrow/Hire Diary

The Borrow/Loan Diary acts more as a lending library than an actual diary.

Items cannot be booked out in advance, instead being marked out to a member and being marked back on return.

By default, only the members who currently have an item out on loan can be seen on the diary. Once it has been returned the items ‘borrower’ details are cleared from the screen.

The ‘date’ navigation controls are disabled for use during this style of diary.

To loan to a member, choose a free item and enter the member number (you can zoom to find) and move to the ‘Borrowed’ field where you should enter the date and time borrowed. You can then optionally enter the date and time the item is due back. Simply move away from that line (click to another) to save.

To return an item, click on the item borrowed and select Return Item from the top toolbar.
