Copying (Cloning) a Booking and Updating it with Future Dates

In a lesson you have learned how to create a series  of meetings in Thynk.  But sometimes, you host a customer’s group and it’s so successful that they decide to book the exact same kind of business for a future date.  It can be that they keep the number of guests the same, events the same etc, but just have a new future date. 

Instead of creating a brand new future booking, you will copy the last booking and during this process you will then enter the new dates. This procedure is similar to blocking a series of bookings.

For specific instructions, please refer to the lesson https://learn.thynk.cloud/courses/take/bookings/texts/49481710-how-can-i-copy-a-booking-and-update-it-with-future-dates-cloning-a-booking in Thynk University! 👩🏻‍🎓 Make sure that you have signed into the University from Thynk before clicking on the lesson link. 

Best Practices for Copying a Booking 

• Another example of when you may want to copy a booking is if a company wants to hold an incentive meeting at your hotel, and they wish to book 2 or 3 annual events. You would detail out the first booking and then copy/clone it and insert new dates.
