Synchronizing data to enhance existing software solutions

How a municipality combines in-house and external bookings

The Danish Municipality of Faxe Kommune has many active citizens who use the municipality’s healthcare center. The center aims to inspire everybody to a healthy lifestyle. Besides being a building where doctors’ offices, therapists, and other healthcare specialists are gathered, clubs can use it and the center has a public café. It offers both employees and citizens of the municipality the chance to book rooms.

The Challenge

Combining two systems

Faxe Kommune needed a solution combining in-house bookings with external bookings, allowing citizens and private organizations to book specific resources. The municipality was already using the WinKAS booking system, where citizens, sportsclubs, political organizations, and similar can reserve and manage bookings. Faxe Kommunes employees were also using Add-On Products’ workplace booking solution Resource Central. They needed a solution combining the two systems, making it possible for the in-house employees to book through Microsoft Outlook®, while citizens book through the WinKAS booking system.

The Solution

Synchronizing data

The cooperation between WinKAS and Add-On Products makes it possible to synchronize data between the different systems. Thus, rooms booked through both software solutions will be synchronized and there will be no double bookings. Both employees using Outlook for their daily work, as well as citizens booking through WinKAS system, can use the healthcare center’s resources. The same could be true for other locations used by sports clubs, for courses and by political organizations, for example.

“Thanks to our cooperation with Add-On Products we now have a solution combining the two systems – making it possible for employees to book through Microsoft Outlook®, while citizens book through the WinKAS booking system.”
