Bertrand Dunogier	Tuesday 30 March 2010 2:00:22 am I don't think I've seen anything like this released yet. I'm not looking for such a feature personally, but it's a great idea, and it could really be useful.

Arash Molavi	Tuesday 30 March 2010 4:37:52 am Yeah, I think it's one feature making hotels/restaurants get closer to ez. Well. We'll see if I can do anything good about it.
paul bolger	Wednesday 31 March 2010 12:52:56 am I think it'd be a great idea Arash. Over the years I've been asked for this a few times. I know it has been proposed before, but never seems to have got off the ground. I'd certainly be interested in being involved. Paul Bolger Paul Bolger
Arash Molavi	Thursday 01 April 2010 9:26:31 am So what are the fetures you'd like to have? What we are doing right now is just the possebility to book rooms. After that we will go on maiking it possible to choose from a list of foods (and send out an order to the main chef on foods that need to be ordered) and to the one in charge of buying alcohol (what wines and amount that is needed). After that I think the booking of single tables in a room will be added. When that is done I'm thinking of making a flash file where the guests can make a map over how they whant the seating to be. I think it could work well with hotel bookings as well and with several locations. Hm, but as I'm not a good programmer, it probably will take some time since it's easter and everything:). I'm hoping on my friends to quckly study how ez functions so I can get their help:) Yours Arash
Bertrand Dunogier	Thursday 01 April 2010 12:02:28 pm You guys should start a new project on projects.ez.no ! Now for the ideas... I'd would say this would need to be made as open as possible. Without further thinking, it seems to me that a datatype would be a good basis, along with a few persistent objects dedicated to storing booking data. Each place available for booking would then be a content object with standard informations (pictures, text, etc), and some sort of booking attribute that would be used to automatically show the booking interface. Regarding the open approach, it seems mandatory to me since this most likely has to be adapted to very different situations. It is quite easy to re-use several mechanisms the extension API offers. For instance, custom triggers could be implemented around the standard actions (book, etc) so that any custom process can be hooked there. The template engine is the perfect tool for graphical customization, especially if the templates have been carefully organized. Good CSS naming would also make it very easy.

Håvard Bergersen	Tuesday 06 April 2010 5:07:12 am Hello.. I'm looking for a similar system, so i'm posting it here, but maybe it should be in it's own project. Features: - Should be possible to set when the product/room etc is available, and when it is booked (in a calendar?) - A discount system that makes it possible to add discount to a product or productgroup within a period of time. For campaigns etc. this would be useful to hotels and simular things... - Criterias for the price. Maybe something should cost more if it is a weekend or something like that.
