Edit availability can be edited in three ways...

• Editing an availability event
• Editing availability event rates
• Editing custom availability event rates

 

---

To edit an availability event, start by navigating to the Availability tab of the Product Builder (Inventory > Products > edit/+new product). 

Find the availability event you need to edit within the Availability Events table. 

Open the actions menu (...) and select Edit from the list of options presented. This opens the Edit Availability Event modal.

 

From the Edit Availability Event modal, you can edit the event name, date range, fixed start time setting, hours of operation settings, booking rules, and Guest min/max settings.

 

Any changes to the date range within availability events impact when any pricing for those same availability events is applicable. The date range within the Pricing table is updated accordingly.

Do you need to edit the pricing of the availability event? You can do so from the Availability tab of the Product Builder (Inventory > Products > edit/+new product).

Click on the pencil icon next to the availability event pricing within the Pricing Table. This opens the Edit Availability Rate modal.

 

From the Edit Availability Rate modal, you can modify the rate type, percentage (%) or amount ($), modify the rate number, or remove the availability rate.

From the modal, you can also Remove the availability event pricing. This does not remove or delete the associated availability event, it simply disables the availability rates and removes the pricing from the Pricing Table.
