We've just gone live with OpenRoom, got a lot of student response - and have run into a problem I think is due to incorrect handling of the change to daylight saving time (this is in the UK). The problem is the display is out of sync with the data in the database, and as a result the system is letting students make duplicate bookings causing further problems. We've turned it off for now - but I wonder if anyone else has run into this problem and has a quick fix? Thanks Graham On 03/07/11 21:46, Erin R White/FS/VCU wrote: > Seconded on OpenRoom.
