Book a resource

You book resources from the Planner, the calendar of everything reserved. A booking attaches a renter, a resource, and a time, and will not save if it would clash with something else.

Find your way around the planner

The Planner shows bookings across your resources. Switch between the grid and a flat feed, and filter by status, kind, or resource to focus in. An empty range reads No bookings in this range.

Create a booking

  1. Press New booking, or click an open slot in the grid to prefill the resource and time.

  2. Pick the renter, then choose a Resource and set the Start and End.

    If there are no resources yet you'll see No resources yet. Add one on the Resources page first.

  3. Add a Label (like Birthday party for the Smith family) and any Notes. A live quote shows the total due.

  4. Press Create booking. You'll see Booking created.

Clear a conflict

If the time overlaps another booking or a blackout, you'll see This time conflicts with another booking. Pick another time, or override with a reason below. The booking will not save until you move it, or type a reason to book over it on purpose. Booking over another booking also has to be allowed in your rentals settings; a blackout only needs the reason.
