Automatic Availability Checking
LodgeKit automatically checks unit availability when you create or edit a booking. You will never accidentally double-book a unit because the system only shows units that are free for your selected dates.
How It Works
When you select start and end dates on the booking form, LodgeKit scans all existing bookings, stays, reservations, or tenancies for conflicts. A unit is considered unavailable if it has any overlapping booking, stay, reservation, or tenancy that is not cancelled. The unit dropdown only shows units that are free for the entire date range you selected.
Units in Maintenance status are also excluded from availability results. Set a unit back to Available when repairs are complete.
Tips for Managing Availability
Keep your booking, stay, reservation, or tenancy statuses up to date. Complete the record promptly when the guest, resident, camper, member, or customer leaves so the unit becomes available. If the person extends their dates, edit the booking, stay, reservation, or tenancy to update the end date rather than creating a second record.
If you need to see all available units for a date range without creating a booking, go to the units section and use the date filter at the top of the page.
