To begin, navigate to Meeting Rooms Management and click on 'Manage Bookings':
This opens the booking calendar where you can create and manage bookings. Most of its filtering functionality is contained in the highlighted area to the left. The rest is taken up by the calendar itself, which can be switched between Day, Week, and Month views.

How To Manage Bookings
Use the booking calendar in either Calendar or List view to manage bookings. We suggest using List view if you're dealing with a large number of bookings.
Use the Search field to find bookings. You can also filter the list by:
- Time period (choose the Start and End date)
- Status (Canceled, Confirmed, Lapsed, Tentative)
- Resource Type
- Resource (select a resource from the drop-down menu to view the bookings for it)
- Source (where the booking originates from, i.e. the Members Portal)
