Formitable setup
Once you've received confirmation your Formidable integration is added. Setting up the integration your Formitable account is easy and can be done by following these steps:
-
In your account, go to Settings and choose App center in the left menu.
-
Here you will now find a box for Formitable, with Installed below it.
-
Click the Edit mapping option on the right (the second icon with 2 arrows in a square), you will now be redirected to the link page for your link.
-
On the Reservartions import settings page you can indicate for each Cost center (Formitable) that is known within your Formitable account what the corresponding department is within your account with us.
-
Once you've set everything, click Save. The setup is now complete.
Import reservations
All reservations for the current day and the next 14 days are imported from Formitable to your account with us every 5 minutes. These reservations are then shown using an Event within the schedule*. The number of reservations and the number of guests is stated in the title, so you can see how many reservations there are for a department on a particular day.
When you open the event item or hover over it with your mouse, you will receive a detailed overview of the reservations, time and the number of guests.
In the example below we see "Res.: 1 (8)".
This means that there is one reservation with 8 guests. In the details you will also see the time of the reservation and when it was imported from Formitable.
*The event item for the reservations is automatically created and updated by our system. If you manually make changes to this generated event item, this can lead to the loss of changes and/or unnecessary extra event items.
