Set up and manage reservations

Configure availability and review incoming bookings.

Configure the booking basics

Review the reservation name and booking time interval in reservation settings. If customers book through chat, check Customer Booking Enabled and the connected agent task.

Adjust rules in Advanced Settings

Expand Advanced Settings to configure booking capacity, bookable date range, cutoff rules, and duplicate booking limits. Review the defaults first, then change the rules your operation needs.

Use the list and calendar

Use Reservation List to review bookings as a list, and Reservation Calendar to review them by date. Change the date range to see bookings for the selected period.
