Using the Intranet WebApp M

The Intranet WebApp gives staff without access to the Bp Event application a limited view of the event calendar and room bookings plus, if needed, an option for creating booking requests and new accounts. The exact appearance of the WebApp Intranet interface will depend on the customised configuration. Many functions and fields can be shown or hidden individually.

Options for booking rooms and possibly caterings, for searching and creating accounts and for searching available items can be made available depending on the exact configuration.

  • Create event requests in the Intranet WebApp

    Create your own event booking requests including room reservations in the WebApp. When setting up the templates, your company determines whether these bookings are considered as mere enquiries or confirmed bookings. As soon as an event is created in the intranet, the responsible user group will receive a notification to process the event further.

    1. Go to Event > Create event to make a new booking. If multiple event templates are available for your company, this selection will appear first. Otherwise, a new event enquiry will open directly.
    2. Enter the key details of the event on the Enquiry tab. Date, Time, Occasion and Number of guests are mandatory fields. There is space for comments in the field Initial agreement .

Select suche Search account if you know that the organiser's account already exists in the database (see Search accounts). Select neu Create account to enter a new account (see Creating accounts).
