Default booking information
Back to top
Activities are organized in rows by items/products booked for the selected day with the next activities listed first. Items/products can have one or more associated bookings depending on your business and configuration.
The time frame of the item/product is listed first, followed by the name of the item/product 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.
For each booking, the following information is presented by default.
| Value | Description | Additional Details |
|
Booking Code |
This is the unique identifier associated with the booking. |
Click on this code to open the Booking Invoice in a separate tab. |
| Booker |
This is the person who submitted the booking. |
They may or may not be participating in the booking, depending on your configuration and whether the booking includes additional Guests or not. They may simply be the principal contact for the booking. |
|
Start Date/Time |

|
If the item/product has Timeslots, then each slot is displayed as a separate entry. If an event is an All Day event, then only the start time is displayed. |
| Guests |
This is the number of Guests with completed Guest information versus the number associated with the booking. |
|
| Payment |
The Payment column displays the total amount you've received for the associated booking. |
|
| Status |
This is the status of the booking e.g. Paid vs Cancelled. You can update the booking status directly from the Daily Manifest. You are asked if you want to send any associated status notifications with the change. |
Cancelled bookings are included in the Daily Manifest to help you get a better understanding of the dynamics of the day and plan accordingly. |
| Check In/Out |
Staff can Check-in and then Check-out the booking.
|
Once the booking is checked out, the Check In/Out status displays the option to Reset Check-in. This is helpful if you Check-out a booking in error. |
