  • Selecting the hyperlinked "Edit Reservation Details" under the "Reservation Details" section of the page will allow you to edit: 
      • Recurring meeting details
      • Reservation name
      • Contact name, phone, and email
    • Once the event reservation details have been updated, select the "Save Reservation Details" button on the upper or lower left-hand side of the page. 
  • Selecting the blue pencil icon under the "Bookings" section of the page will allow you to edit booking details for the same space: 
      • Use the "Event Details" section on the left to change the booking date and time
      • Select the "Attendance and Setup Type" hyperlink to change the number of attendees  
    • After the changes to the date and/or time are made, select the "Update Booking"  button near the center or on the upper right-hand side of the page.  

Please note that if a different space is required, please cancel the original reservation and create a new reservation for the preferred workspace.  See the steps below to cancel a reservation.

A pop-up window will appear where you can select the "Yes, Cancel Reservation" button or "No, Keep Reservation" button (i.e. if the "Cancel Reservation" option was accidentally selected).  Once you've confirmed the cancellation, the status of the reservation under the "Booking" header will show the reservation as "canceled" on the far right-hand side of the page.  You can then close the tab/window or navigate to another page within the EMS site.
