this is my BookingsFactory

<?php

namespace Database\Factories;

use App\Models\Bookings;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;

class BookingsFactory extends Factory
{
    /**
     * The name of the factory's corresponding model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $model = Bookings::class;

    /**
     * Define the model's default state.
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public function definition()
    {
        return [
            'is_booking'=>0,
            'full_name'=>$this->faker->unique()->name,
            'location'=>$this->faker->location,
            'phone'=>$this->faker->number,
            'is_booking'=>3,
            'email'=>$this->faker->safeEmail,
            'date'=>$this->faker->date,
            'event_id'=>$this->faker->event_id,
            'event_details'=>$this->faker->paragraph,
            
        ];
    }
}

this is my database seeder

<?php

namespace Database\Seeders;

use App\Models\Role;
use App\Models\Bookingstatus;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Database\Seeders\RoleSeeder;
use Database\Seeders\Userseeder;
use Database\Seeders\BookingsSeeder;
use Database\Seeders\BookingstatusSeeder;

class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
    /**
     * Seed the application's database.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function run()
    {
        $this->call([
            BookingsSeeder::class,
            BookingstatusSeeder::class,
        ]);
        \App\Models\Bookingstatus::factory()->hasbookings(10)->create();

        
    }
}

i figure out where the issue was 1.first on the bookings factory i have to change the faker details to this

return [
            'is_booking'=>0,
            'full_name'=>$this->faker->unique()->name,
            'location'=>$this->faker->address,
            'phone'=>$this->faker->numerify('###-###-####'),
            'is_booking'=>3,
            'email'=>$this->faker->safeEmail,
            'date'=>$this->faker->unique()->dateTime()->format('Y/m/d'),
            'event_id'=>$this->faker->randomDigit(),
            'event_details'=>$this->faker->paragraphs(2, true),
            
        ];

also i should have imported this code at the top of the bookingstatus factory

use Illuminate\Support\Str;
