The Calendar page shows all confirmed, checked-in, and checked-out reservations. Cancelled bookings are not visible here.

💡 View all reservations including cancelled ones on the Reservations page.

Your calendar displays room types and their physical rooms. Available physical rooms determine inventory availability.

➕ Example: If your double room type has rooms 1, 2, and 3 with no reservations or closures, the Inventory page shows availability of 3.

To rename physical rooms or change their number:

To hide or unhide room types' physical rooms and their unallocated rows, click the room type name to hide/unhide its physical rooms and unallocated rows. Use the expand/collapse button (upper-left corner) to show or hide all rooms at once.

A room closure is a temporary block that you can put on a room for a certain range of dates so it won't be available for booking during that period. Use for renovations, maintenance, or holding rooms for future reservations.

💡 Room closures appear in red on the Calendar page.

➕ For permanent closures, delete the room instead. Learn more: Create, edit, or delete a room type.

Room closures decrease availability on the Inventory page. Reopening increases availability.

Number of rooms minus reservations and room closures.

Example: 5 double rooms - 2 booked - 1 closed = 2 available

What is the difference between room closure and Close channels?

💡 You can apply both at the same time.

➕ Room closures apply to physical rooms (Calendar page). Close channels apply to rate plans (Inventory page).

There are two ways to apply a room closure:

Create room closure

Remember to click Save.

💡 Drag the end tip left (shorter) or right (longer) to quickly adjust the closure length.

⚠️ Reopening increases room availability across all channels and booking engine.

Holds valid, confirmed reservations not assigned to physical rooms.

⚠️ Unallocated reservations reduce availability the same as allocated ones.

How can I use it?

Reallocate reservations when a room type is fully booked.

Example: Move one reservation to Unallocated, rearrange others, then move it back to a physical room.

How can I allocate unallocated reservations?

Why would a reservation fall under Unallocated?

No consecutive nights available

Example: Room 4 free today, Room 5 free tomorrow (both double rooms). A 2-night double room booking checks in today → goes to Unallocated (no single room available for full stay).

⚠️ Apply room closure to prevent guests changing rooms mid-stay.

Manual overbooking

Creating a reservation without selecting Room # sends it to Unallocated.

Channel overbooking

System cannot find available room for the booking.
