Introduction

This page is a discussion for the implementation on how we register the reservation of seats in a location for a certain date and time. Please add comments and/or amend the text.

Currently there is a reservation possibility for rooms in a Hotel. It makes usage of the product --> fixedasset --> techdatacalendar  entities for registration of location and availability. Reservations are stored in the order --> orderitem --> workEffort -> fixedasset entities.

This is fine for rooms in a Hotel but this organization has the following problems:

Entities purposes:
The first two entities are described in the upper comments I would like to say just a bit more about AccommodationSpot.
AccommodationSpot-defines a SPECIFIC spot that is available within accommodation map.
Spots might be fa but this is not a must. This make it very useful in cases where we
need to model seats for example. In this entity we store the number of the room/table/seat. I  modified its type to be  varchar
as plane seats for example are mixture of different letters and numbers.
 
I created jira issue where I uploaded the patch for these entities(with the fields I think
we need to enhance, but if the community does not agree on them just don`t take them).Here is the linkofbiz-1590

Definitions

• A restaurant is a facility with a dining area which is a fixed asset having a accomodation map with spots which are tables and/or seats. A table can be reserved selecting the product (table reservation for fixedasset 'dining area' in a facility) and selecting the accomodation spot from the related map.
• An Aeroplane, Bus or Train is a  fixed asset having a accomodation map with spots in several classes flying from airport A which is a facility to airport B which is another facility
• A hotel is a facility with a restaurant (fixedasset) and rooms (single fixed asset) having a accomodation map with spots which are rooms.
