Booking Test Equipment
For high-priced analytical instruments, it is often necessary to coordinate who can use the device and when. In Labordatenbank, you now have a convenient function with a calendar to get an overview of all test equipment and their booked usage periods.
To add a new booking for a test equipment, go to the test equipment and click on Bookings-> Create Booking.
In the window for creating a new test equipment booking, you can now define the desired period, responsible person, category, purpose, order, and sample. The purpose, as well as the order and sample, will then appear in the booking calendar for this test equipment, and the purpose in the booking calendar for selected test equipment.
To define the test equipment booking category, click on Edit Categories and adjust your categories and colors accordingly.
Continue to: Overview of your test equipment in Test Equipment Calendar.
