An incomplete booking is a booking that was almost going to be completely made in the diary but failed at the last step. Bookings goes to an incomplete booking list for one of two reasons: 1 - While making an internal booking, after all, details have been added, all that is left to do is click 'Complete', however, the user click on 'cancel' instead of the 'Complete' button. This booking will be marked as incomplete. 2. A booking is made internally and the booking requires card details or a deposit to secure it. The restaurants then triggers this request to the customers via email (Payment Landing Page). Customers will have a time limit to provide the card details/ payment. Once the set time limit to provide the card details/payment is up booking got canceled itself and they will be sent a cancellation email to the guest and the booking will go 'Incomplete Bookings'.
