Dashboard and rooms
Read the dashboard and set up the rooms you sell.
Dashboard
Dashboard gives you a quick look at today:
- Add Room and Add Booking open the Rooms and Bookings pages, where the add forms are at the top.
- Total Rooms, Available Rooms and Occupied Rooms count your rooms by their current status. Rooms that need cleaning or are under maintenance count in the total only.
- Today's Revenue adds up the Total Amount of every booking whose check-in date is today. It is the value of today's arrivals, not the money you received today.
- Today's Check-ins and Today's Check-outs count the bookings whose check-in or check-out date is today.
The tiles are not clickable.
Rooms
Add a room
Open Rooms from the sidebar, or click Add Room on the Dashboard.
Enter the Room Number, for example 402.
Choose the Room Type: Single, Double or Suite.
Enter the Capacity (number of guests) and the Price per Night.
Choose the Status. New rooms default to Available. The other options are Occupied, Needs Cleaning and Maintenance.
Click Add. The page reloads and the new room appears under All Rooms.
All five fields are required. The app does not stop you from using a room number that already exists, so check the list first.
See all rooms
All Rooms is a table sorted by room number, with each room's Room Type, Capacity, Price per Night and Status. Click a row or View to open the room.
View, edit or delete a room
Room Details shows the room's status, type, capacity and price per night. Below them, Bookings for this room lists every booking for the room, newest first, with the guest, dates, status and total. Click a booking to open it. A room with no bookings shows No bookings for this room yet.
To edit the room:
Click Edit. The fields become editable and show the room's current values: Room Number, Room Type, Capacity, Price per Night and Status.
Change what you need.
Click Save. The page reloads with the new details. Cancel closes the form without saving.
To delete the room, click Delete Room and confirm. You can't delete a room that has bookings, unless every one of them is cancelled. You'll see This room has bookings and cannot be deleted. Cancel or remove its bookings first.
How room status changes
The app changes a room's status for you at the front desk:
| When you… | The room becomes |
|---|---|
| Click Mark Checked In on a booking | Occupied |
| Click Mark Checked Out on a booking | Needs Cleaning |
Set the room back to Available yourself on Room Details once it has been cleaned. Use Maintenance to take a room out of use: rooms under maintenance can't be booked.
