Create Visible (But Unbookable) Rooms
A member library wants to create rooms that are viewable by patrons, but which they cannot reserve.
Right now, the only way we can accomplish this is to remove all availability from a room. But that isn't ideal, not least because (a) it gives patrons no idea of when the room might be in use, as well as cluttering up the , and (b) if staff want to manually book it for patrons on the back-end, they must click through repeated warnings.
This appears to be included as part of another idea (https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951976-vega-program/suggestions/49834827-add-option-for-other-location-visibility-on-back-e), but not addressed there.

Add to calendar
Can the public Add to Calendar link be something that can be more easily added to a Google calendar rather than just downloaded as an iCalendar file?

Some libraries want to use the color coding for rooms/locations instead of categories.

Send Reminders to Enter Program Attendance
I know it's a long shot, but it would be incredibly helpful if there was a way to send a reminder email if program attendance hasn't been entered by a certain time period (i.e. a week after the program occurred), as staff often forget to enter attendance after events and we spend a lot of time trying to track down these errant stats.

Add "Tomorrow" to Date Range drop down
Staff have expressed an interest in having "tomorrow" as an option since "today" and "yesterday" are already an option, instead of having to go to "custom range" since they are looking ahead only a day or two.

Saving as a Draft Blocks the Room
Saving a draft should block the room, which allows staff to be more efficient. They won't need to delete or unpublish public/private events to prevent the room from being booked.
This is important when 100+ events are happening in a single month.

Event Approval Problem
Our workflow is this: librarians create events. Managers approve events. Admins publish the events. The problem lies in the approval process: Everything that's approved/ready to post goes to one big list. We host hundreds of events, so if we could filter by manager or building, that would be a huge enhancement. Another shortcoming is that the Admins have no way of knowing if the managers have approved their events. A three-step process for (1) creating; (2) approving (with a checkmark or something); and (3) publishing events would also be an enormous improvement.

Events and Equipment
When we book a room, we can also book equipment.
When we create an event, we can book a room, but not reserve equipment, that has to be done separately. We have parent/child rooms. That means that if staff does not book chairs, they may end up with none. It will mean staff have to do twice as much work to make sure they have the equipment that they need.
Please tie in equipment bookings to the Events calendar, so staff can book everything at once.1 vote -

Option to Auto Waitlist a Program
We'd like the option to be able to choose to send all registrants straight to waitlist with no bookings allowed on patron level. Then, like the current waitlist, we can manually add them to the registration when we open it up.

Private yes/no filter would be really helpful on the search dashboard and on the staff calendar
We often have events created which are set to private=yes and some that should be private that have been left inadvertently with the default of private=no. We often discover this by error when things appear on the public calendar and on our website. We then have to edit each individual event to adjust the private yes/no setting. A search filter would allow us to quickly generate a list of private events. Having the ability to see this from the staff dashboard search results and on the staff calendar would be a huge time saver for our team. Currently, the only…

Staff Side 'Add Bookings' Customization
- Add the ability to change the behavior of the Add Bookings page to default to a Guest booking rather than a Member booking. We typically don't require patrons to provide a library card number when registering for a program.
- Add the ability to make the Booking Note & Staff Name field not required. This may be confusing for staff and isn't something we would need every time staff register a patron for an event.

Post-booking approval
For the sake of enforcing use limit policies, it would be helpful to be able to approve bookings after they have already happened. With few staff who are able to approve requests, sometimes we don't get to approve requests before the room has already been used. To be able to approve requests after a booking (with the option not to notify a patron since there's no need) would then help the staff when reviewing future requests in the same limitation period. To help clarify, we have a playroom that is available by reservation, but walk-up use is welcomed and counts…

Program should be able to handle accounts with more than one barcode
In our system, there are patrons who have more than one card number. If those patrons attempt to register for a program with the number that is not the first number listed on their account, then Vega Program is unable to find them in the system and a "No Matching Member is Found" error is generated.

Set sort by to "relevance" by default
Set "Relevance" as the Default Search Option. Currently, the default search is set to "date," which often results in events being displayed that don't match the search keyword(s). Switching the default to "relevance" gives more accurate and meaningful search results.
Sort by Relevance results should be sorted by date. When the search is set to "relevance," the results are not sorted chronologically, which shows the events out of order.
