The Daily check box is used for bookings that occur over multiple days. The Daily check box is available on the Pending Bookings section of the Booking Calendar, the Bookings tab of the Edit Event screen and the Edit Booking screen if the Serial Booking Flag check box is checked on the Booking Configuration screen.
If the Daily check box is checked for a booking, then the booking times are set for each day according to the booking start and end times. For example, if a space is booked for Day 1 at 10:00 am through Day 3 at 3:00 pm, then the space is booked for Day 1 from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm, Day 2 from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm and Day 3 from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm. If the Daily check box is unchecked, the space is booked for Day 1 at 10:00 am - 12:00 am, Day 2 12:00 am - 12:00 am and Day 3 from 12:00 am - 3:00 pm. The booking remains one single booking.
If the user checks the Daily check box on the Pending Bookings section on the Booking Calendar, the multiple-day booking is not split into separate Daily bookings when you click the Book button. If you need to split the booking into separate booking lines, use the Split By Day right-click menu option.
If the check box for the Serial Booking Flag is not checked on the Booking Configuration screen, the Daily check box is not available on the Pending Bookings section of the Booking Calendar, the Bookings tab of the Edit Event screen or the Edit Booking screen, even it if it is added to your column view or your screen layout. You can use the Split By Day right-click menu option to create daily bookings.

Hi Michelle,
there is an organization parameter: "BK085 Serial Booking Flag" that defines the default for the daily/serial bookings
Hope this helps!

Thank you Fabienne that I know how to re-enable this feature after the upgrade.
However, we found the display difference after checking this "Daily" check box.
Before, if we checked Daily box, the bookings would be split into separate Daily bookings as the user guide shown below -
But now, even user checks the Daily check box on the Pending Bookings section on the Booking Calendar, the booking become one single booking as shown below -
Is this the setting issue? that we can set to come separate daily bookings as before?
Thank you in advance!
Best Regards,
Samantha

Hi Samantha - we did some rework in how the Daily checkbox works when booking events. There is a new right click action from the pending bookings and bookings grid called Split By Day. Selecting this action on a booking that spans multiple days will create separate booking lines for each day.
We will update the above article with more complete information shortly. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Hello Mark,
Thank you! and we can have this feature again, as it's useful for us to count the daily booking rates for reporting.
Best Regards,
Samantha

@... it is a real shame and annoying UB needed to rework this functionality.
Daily checkbox was functional and quick as you were able to edit multiple at one time.
Please bring it back!
There are now too many extra steps / clicks for users to split each row daily at a time. I tried highlighting multiple rows, right click for split by day however there is no option. Is there a way to do on bulk?
If it is not possible to have the daily tickbox working again then at minimum please provide the split by day in the edit multiple.
