18<strong>Important:</strong> Existing beds in the bed list will never be changed! If you modify the hall specifications, beds will only be added <strong>not</strong> deleted or rededicated. To delete beds (e.g. you want to reduce the number of beds per room) you have to delete the entire hall. Then all beds will be removed and the booking information is lost.</blockquote>
