What are Bookings?

Bookings can also be called MICE = Meetings, Incentive, Conferences, Exhibitions) 
Bookings within the THYNK platform encompass a systematic process of managing events, meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (often referred to as MICE) for clients. These bookings progress through four proposal stages:
  1. Qualified
  2. Proposed
  3. Tentative
  4. Closed (Won, Cancelled, Refused, Lost)
For definitions of these proposal stages, can be found here. 

Throughout these stages, bookings contain detailed information such as Account details, Contacts, Booking Packages, Guest Rooms, Events, Spaces, Products, Commissions, Taxes and more. Users can track progress, add products, attach files, log calls, use Notes for meeting details, create tasks and calendar events, and communicate with their team via Chatter for seamless collaboration.
