Adding Runs

Adding Runs


Each run in your facility needs to be defined in the Runs form in order for bookings to be made to it. If you have not yet defined your run types, do this first. Runs can be added one at a time or you can automatically create multiple runs using the Auto-Create tool.

Adding Runs One at a Time

  1. Open the Runs form if it is not already open.
  2. Select the run type to add the runs to, from the list in the Run Types section.
  3. Click in the grid where it is labeled “Click here to add a new Run”. It is best to give all runs of a particular type the same format, i.e. runs using a “Small” run type could be numbered SML01, SML02, SML03, and runs using a “Large” run type numbered LRG01, LRG02. Enter the run number then hit your Enter key to add the new run, and repeat this step for all runs you wish to add. Note: If you tick “Unavailable”, the run will no longer show up in the Boarding Calendar and cannot be selected for a booking.
  4. Save the runs.

Adding Runs Using the Auto-Create Tool

  1. Open the Runs form if it is not already open.
  2. Select the run type to add the runs to, from the list in the Run Types section.
  3. In the “Auto-Create” section, enter the Prefix for the run numbers and choose the start and end numbers. The text below the End Number field explains how many runs and the range of numbers to be created.
  4. Choose Create to have the runs created, which will then appear in the grid. Any run numbers within the range that had already been added previously will be skipped.
  5. Save the runs, or if you wish to not save them, Undo the changes
