      Note:

      Selected reservation waitlist record showing priority field and Assign a space tab.

      Event Planners can change the weight or priority of a waitlist record that is in Queued status and save it. Event Planners can cancel a waitlist record that is queued on behalf of an employee.

      Note:
      Event planners can update only a Queued waitlist record.
    5. Update Weight (priority).
      Event planners can prioritize a waitlist record in the queue. Prioritizing a waitlist record moves the selected record to rank higher in the queue. Provide the highest possible weight number to a record. The Queued waitlist record for a space is prioritized for space assignment. For example, if a Queued waitlist is showing Weight as 50, change it to 100 so that the waitlist entry moves up in the queue for quicker space assignment.

      When a weight or priority value is not added, the application filters waitlist records based on the Create by field in the Reservation Waiting Lists Table. For example, if there are 5 waitlist records, the application prioritizes the waitlist record that was created first, based on the date and time field values. For example, a waitlist record that was created on 16/05/2026 will be prioritized before a waitlist record that was created on 21/05/2026. For more information, see Reservation Waitlist data model.

    6. Select Save.
    7. Optional: Select Assign a space to assign a space as an event planner.
