Enhancements
Subscribe to RSS News Feeds for Calendars
You can now subscribe to RSS news feeds of calendars in Facility Scheduler. When you subscribe to an RSS feed, Facility Scheduler sends you a summary of information about upcoming events for that calendar. You can subscribe to events for all calendars, or select calendars individually. We also provide you with the RSS feed links so you can post them to your Web site: a great way to encourage your members to subscribe and always be "in the know." To learn more, see RSS Feeds. 
Event Notes Available for Advanced Query Results
Last December, we gave your the ability to choose which columns display in the advanced queries results. Because of your feedback, we added the new event Notes field to the list of options. You can now include event notes when you export or print a query.
Reset Passwords Faster
Forgot your password? Facility Scheduler conveniently sends you an e-mail with instructions for resetting it. For this release, we trekked the Mountain of Complicated Technical Stuff to ensure you receive the reset e-mail faster. The reset e-mail is now sent before any other Facility Scheduler e-mails.
Corrections
Summary | Status |
|---|---|
Copied events displayed the original creator as the user who added the event. | Resolved |
When adding an event from the bookings window, the location booked was not listed as the primary location. | Resolved |
The calendar view did not update automatically after editing an event description. | Resolved |
Booking was rejected when users attempted to book a resource that had a quantity greater than one and the event was in multiple locations. | Resolved |
Facility Scheduler did not require phone number validation, whereas Access ACS did. This made switching between the two products difficult. | Resolved |
Recurring events messages displayed with a misleading message. For example, an event that occurred every-other Monday displayed as occurring "every Monday of every two weeks." The message now displays as "Monday of every other week." | Resolved |
Some events did not display for all view types when viewing calendars by month, week, or day. | Resolved |
Queries exported as .CSV files could not be used with other programs, such as Google Calendar. | Resolved |
Facility Scheduler froze when you entered a recurring event that exceeded 175 occurrences. | Resolved |
Some users could not save an event because it conflicted with itself. | Resolved |
Yes/No questions could not be required when creating event types. | Resolved |
