Understanding System Configuration and Settings in Room Reserve

Many of the key customizations for Room Reserve can be found in the System Settings and Maintenance menu. You can access this menu from the Room Reservation Maintenance page.

NOTE: The menu options are different in All Branches Mode than in individual branch mode. If you don't see a menu you are looking for, be sure to check what branch mode you are in. Also, if you library uses Events, the System Settings for Events are the dominant settings.
