To use functions that retrieve or directly process up-to-date data from Bp Event, the WebApp must be able to access the Bp Event server. If the online booking system is made publicly available to external customers, the Bp Event web server must be securely accessible via the internet. If the app is used exclusively within the organisation or on a closed network, accessibility via the intranet may be sufficient.
Access to the Bp Event web server is a prerequisite for existing and future functions that require direct communication with Bp Event. These include, in particular:
- Real-time check of room availability,
- Taking into account current opening and closing times,
- Customer registration and login,
- subsequent editing of existing events or orders by registered customers,
- Integration with payment gateways and
- Direct import of the enquiries and orders received.
It is therefore essential that the web server can be reliably accessed in this operating scenario. The technical requirements should be agreed with the IT team at an early stage.
