Use the Facility Request option to display a list of facilities on the Waiting List form. A Patron can select a facility and be placed on the Waiting List for that facility.
The Facility Request field is a placeholder for the list of facilities available for a Patron to select. When added to a Form, it will display as a list of facilities to a Patron in the GET app. The available facilities are defined when creating the Waiting List (via Setup > Facilities > Waiting Lists).
Note: A Waiting List Form needs only a Facility Request section or an Attribute Request section—not both. The added section depends on the associated Waiting List definition (selected when adding requirements in the last step in the form creation process).
A Waiting List Form needs a Facility Request section if it is associated with a Waiting List definition with a list of facilities.
Similarly, a Waiting List Form needs an Attribute Request section if it is associated with a Waiting List definition with a defined Attribute.
Use the following procedure to add a Facility Request section to a Form:
1. Select the Facility Request option and drag it to the desired location in the Form.
2. Click Edit to show the configuration options.
•Required – If checked, the patron must complete the Facility Request section of the Form.
•Label – The Label is the name for the Facility Request section displayed on the Form.
•Enable “Other” – If checked, an additional option, labeled Other, will be added to the list of Options. When a patron selects Other, a blank field is displayed to allow the patron to enter text.
•Read-Only – By default, Facility Request information is read-only.
Note: CBORD recommends leaving the Read-Only field checked.
3. If necessary, drag the Facility Request section to another location in the Form.
