What is an activity?
An activity is a product session, for example:
- 03/28/2026 All day | Scenic Boat Tour
The Daily Manifest shows all bookings for the day by activity.
Understanding the default booking information
Activities are organized in rows by items/products booked for the selected day, with the next activities listed first. Depending on your business and configuration, items/products can have one or more associated bookings.
The item/product's time frame is listed first, followed by the item/product's name in bold.
A sub-heading includes a roll-up of information on the associated bookings, including the number of bookings for the time frame, the number of Guests, parameter tallies (e.g., 1 Adult, 2 Seniors), and the total paid.
By default, the system presents the following information for each booking.
| Value | Description |
| Booking Code |
This value is the unique identifier associated with the booking. Click on this code to open the Booking Invoice in a separate tab. |
| Booker |
This value is the person who submitted the booking. Depending on your configuration and whether the booking includes additional guests, they may or may not be participating in the booking. They may be the principal contact for the booking. |
| Start Date/Time |
This value is the start date and time for the booking. If the item/product has Timeslots, the system displays each slot as a separate entry. The system displays the start time only if an event is an All Day event. |
| End Date/Time |
This value is the end date and time for the booking. If the item/product has Timeslots, the system displays each slot as a separate entry. The system does not display the end time for an All Day event. |
| Guests | This value is the number of Guests with completed Guest information versus the number associated with the booking. |
| Assigned Assets | This value is the list of all inventory assets assigned to the booking. |
| Payment | The Payment column displays the total amount you've received for the booking. |
| Status |
This value is the booking's status, e.g., Paid vs. Cancelled. You can update the booking status directly from the Daily Manifest. The system asks you if you want to send any associated status notifications with the change. Cancelled bookings are included in the Daily Manifest to help you better understand the dynamics of the day and plan accordingly. |
| Check In/Out |
Staff can Check-in and then Check-out the booking. Once Staff checks out the booking, the Check In/Out status displays the Reset Check-in option. This option is helpful if you check out a booking in error. |
|
Daily Manifest and booking status types The Daily Manifest now shows ALL Booking Status Types, not just those that lock inventory. This behavior gives you an accurate representation of the day ahead! |
Default Guest Information
Guest Information can be captured and associated with the booking if the Guest Form (Manage > Integrations > Guest Management) integration is enabled.

You can expand the booking record to view the Guest List for the selected booking. You can also Expand All or Collapse All records to quickly and easily switch between modes.
The Guest List includes the following default information for each Guest, even though it reflects the fields configured in your Guest Form (Manage > Layout > Guest Form).
