New PIP-II Tour Request
This system allows requests to be made for a tour of a facility. Upon
entering the request, an email will be sent to the person or persons configured as
the organizers for that facility. Authorized people can update the status of the
request as Approved, Rejected, Pending or Canceled
and mark a request as containing a VIP. If a request is marked as having
a VIP, it will appear on the calendar and the list with a gold star.
If a status of approved is given, there will be an opportunity to send a message
to the requester. Comments can also
be added and associated with the status update. A history of the statues updates
will be displayed on the request form.
PIP-II List
Requests can be viewed on the list. The list has links to the request,
the number of people, the requester and the approval status
PIP-II Calendar
Approved requests will appear on the calendar. If the person viewing the
calendar is authorized
it will also show any maintenance periods for the facility.
clicking on the calendar will allow maintenace periods for the facility
to be entered.
Facilities are configured with:
a name that will appear on the title of the pages and the calendar
for maintenance work if more than one facility is being viewed.
a default color that will be used for display of the maintenance
period on the calendar and tour requests. This color can be changed when entering
a maintenance entry. I thought if this would be used for more than
one area, it would be nice to have the calendar color coded.
Although, the calendar can be used to only display one area
even if more are used/configured.
a contact for the facility
After the facility is created, organizers can be added.
When a new facility is added, an image to use on the request page
can be put on the server too. Right now I am forcing the size to
500x300 and I will have to be given the image to be used.
Tour guides are also configured on this page. Once a tour guide is added, selections
can be made indicating which facility they give guides for.
Authorization allows certain people access to protected features.
