Reservation Manager Calendar

Modified on Mon, 22 Sep at 3:19 PM

The Reservation Manager includes a robust calendar tool that lets you instantly review active bookings from various channels, while keeping unified communication inboxes readily accessible. This smooth integration transforms the calendar into more than just a scheduling view - it becomes a centralized control hub where you can monitor availability, track guest activity, and take action without navigating away from the page.

From adjusting rates to confirming reservations or responding to messages, everything you need to manage daily operations is right in front of you, reducing the need for multiple tabs or systems and giving you a complete overview at a glance.

Calendar icon: Within the Reservation Manager, you can toggle the visibility of the bookings calendar. When deselected, the button appears grayed out, and the calendar will not be displayed.
Display Property options: Choose which properties to view - either all properties, specific groups, or individual ones.
Search tab: Quickly locate bookings by entering a guest's name or booking ID.
Filter options: Narrow down results by booking type or status.
Quote: Use this feature to handle various tasks, including generating quotes, blocking dates to make them unavailable, or adjusting property rates.
Settings: Customize how data is shown by sorting in ascending or descending order, switching between 6-month or 12-month views, or displaying 5 or 10 properties per page.
Month navigation: Scroll left or right to browse through months and check bookings for particular periods.

Calendar display: This interactive display shows all bookings for the selected timeframe and properties, enabling the following actions:
1. Immediate visibility: Instantly view available and occupied days, with details like booking source and guest name. You can select your View mode by enabling/disabling the following options:
