Administration Settings - Bookings
In Administration settings on the Bookings tab, you can set the general settings for guests. This includes minimum number of nights, default country, check-in and check-out times, or how long an option is valid for a guest.
Minimum number of available objects before "Select on map" is enabled
With the option of selecting an object on the map comes the risk of availability for this specific option. This setting allows you to set a minimum number of available objects before the option to select an object on the map is available. This ensure that the guest has a seamless booking experience via the map.
Default country and language
The default country and language set the automatic options when making a new reservation. If you notice that you get German guests by a majority, it might be faster to set these options to Germany and German respectively, than changing it in each booking separately.
Check-In and check-out times
In this section you can set your check-in and check-out times for each specific day of the week.
You want different check-in times on the weekend? Then you can quickly adjust the times for Sunday, Friday and Saturday in the administration settings.
Placement strategy for new bookings
You can decide between two options of organising and optimising your Planboard. Either you distribute revenue evenly over your objects or you maximise occupancy. The latter means that reservations are placed as consecutively and closely to each other as possible.
Because it was first only possible to distribute rent evenly over objects, this is the default. However, check whether the option to maximise occupancy might be a better fit for you.
For either strategy, you can choose to let priorities that are determined per object overrule it. If you enable priorities, set them in the Statistics module under ‘Rent distribution’. By clicking on a type, you see an overview of its objects. For each object, you can define a priority.
If you work with the owner module and choose to distribute revenue evenly over objects, you also have to determine to what extent owner reservations are considered in the revenue.
Options
In the options section, you can set how long an option is valid when the guests is in the booking process, but has not confirmed their booking yet. The "Maximum number of options per guest" limits a guest on how many potential bookings they can be in the process of.
