Following on from some of the discussions what would be really useful is if the were some kind of output (csv, xls etc.) that gave a list of available slots by room. I realise this is available graphically through the room usage report, however a flat file output could easily be analysed through Excel or Crystal and would target rooms with available space. Additionally, as far as I can see, there are no filters within the Room Usage report (e.g. Site, Room Type, Capacity). To provide an example of why this would be useful the IS manager recently asked me to provide infromation on available slots in IT rooms. Within the software the only available option was to provide a % of time available through the statistics, however, this gave no indication of whether the available time was useful (i.e. a 2 hour slot) or not (i.e. 4*15 minute slots). The alternative was to sit down with the room usage report and manually create a list which is obvioulsy very time consuming. |
