Allow Double Booking On Pending Request

The Allow Double Booking on Pending Requests feature allows multiple requests to be submitted for the same date/time/location while in the Pending approval status. This gives district staff members the ability to choose which group is given the requested time slot and facility.

Important: Your district must use Classifications to use this feature. Only District Admins can enable this feature.
