The Club have released more details of the new Booking System here 

There are still finer details still to be arrived but the link (thanks Harry) sets out how the new system will work.

I have closed the previous thread on when we will get details of the new booking system and opened this one to allow comments specifically on the new system rather than discussing what they might be.

Not quite the same thing, JV. One is an ongoing continuous record, the other has multi fluctuations with many variables. I expect JK will explain it to you👍🏻

Very near and what is being looked at would be on going ,it only should need doing once and finalised ,if the next booking system is implemented in April ,

And if JK can explain it then many members I  think   would be interested going by the posts on here

See my edit, JV. 

I'm afraid your logic is a bit off the rails.

Data migration is one of the uppermost elements of converting from one system to a new version and much thought will normally be put here to avoid manual data transfer, which can be error prone and is often very labour intensive, just consider the number of bookings in the CAMC system at cut over...

there's nothing magic about taking existing bookings in chronological order and making a logical decision re pitch type based on the rules as pointed out in the FAQ. 

it just requires some design thought and testing...the sort of thing any project of this size would be subject to...far easier than trying to divvy up current bookings amongst office staff...which won't be a true 'first come' allocation if done like that.

We don’t know exactly how it will be done, BB, or the reasons why. Maybe JK will elaborate🤷🏻‍♂️

See my edit also your reply so far is very much in the ilk of  cannot give a reasoned answer like another poster from yorkscool

Posted on 11/01/2022 21:04

When I posted there was nothing to answer - only your first quip existed.🤷🏻‍♂️

In reply to your edit, I am not saying that but neither you nor I know the ins and outs of the situation so it would be foolish to state anything.

NB. I am not also from Yorkshire.
