Setup
Block the time before the doors open.
Setup and tear-down for business
Flip time is part of the booking
AV, catering, and reset are not optional. Block them on the room so the next meeting cannot start while the last one is still being torn down.
The buffer
Time the building actually needs
Prep and cleanup sit on the booking, so the next group cannot land on a crew that is still resetting.
Tear-down
Hold the room until it is clear.
One booking
Both blocks travel with the event, and count as occupied.
How it works
1On the room calendar
Prep and cleanup count as occupied. Guests do not have to see those blocks.
2Events and meetings
Same conflict engine. Used for conference rooms, floors, and venues.
3No stacked holds
If the room is in reset, the next program cannot sit on top of it.
Two views
Staff see the holds. Guests see the start.
Prep and cleanup sit on the same booking and count as occupied. The public page can hide those blocks, so the listing still shows the real start time.
- Setup before the doors open
- Tear-down after the room is clear
- Conflict detection treats both as time the space is taken
What they're saying
