You can write a windows service or Console Application which will do it for you. The application periodically(you will set the interval) update that table based on your logic. In console application you can run it with the help of Windows Task Scheduler. I prefer Console app(running with Windows task scheduler) over Windows service development only because it is easier to develop/maintain.

Hi,

you can make use of SQL server Agent Jobs, which will allow you to execute certain sql statements regularly after every specified interval, in other terms, this will help to execute sql statements in the scheduled manner.

refer below MSDN article for more on SQL JOBS.

hope it helps.

Hi,
You can make a scheduler whch will check for the reservation and run it from the server-scheduled tasks.
