# Booked By in the Diary
## Explaining how to book within the diary view
The Booked By feature via the Diary enabled bookings to have a distinction between the customer (person that will be seated at the venue) and the person making the booking (Booked By). This is useful for when an organiser is making multiple bookings for different people or group bookings being made by an external company.
Venues can have the Booked By feature enabled in 2 different variations:
- On the Diary only
- On both the Diary and Widget
