To set up your rooms, you first need to create a product. Each room you sell is a "product" on your system.
Go to Products.
Click on "Create" in the top left corner.
This is the standard screen you will see when creating a new product. As soon as you start ticking the boxes on the left, the interface chances and shows you only the options relevant to the type of product you are creating. When setting up rooms, you leave the tick boxes for "can be sold" and "can be purchased". Then you tick the box either for "is a Room" or "is a Dorm".
In this example we are setting up a double room, so we ticked the box for "Is a Room". This Room is sold by room price, not price per person, so we leave the box for "Pricing is per Person" un-ticked.
Next we change the Product Type to "Service", since a room is neither a stockable nor consumable product.
Next we set the Internal Category to "Accommodation". The internal categories define what income account the proceeds from this product get booked into. (Refer to the manual "Edit Product Categories" for instructions on how to set up categories.)
Next you have to define the Room Type. If you haven't set up any room types yet, click on "create and edit" and set up a Room Type. If you already have the definitions, just click on the relevant one. In this example, we would click on "Search More" to get the full list, and then select "Double/Twin" as the Room Type. (Refer to the manual "Set your Room Rates and Rate Periods" for instructions on how to set up room types.)
Next you can define your Scheduler Display Order. On your booking sheet, the room that shows at the top is defined as Scheduler Display Order "1". The next one would be "2", etc. So the number you enter here on Scheduler Display Order defines at which position this room will appear on your booking sheet/calendar.
Next we define the Sale Price - this is how much you are selling this room for. The Cost you can leave at 0, and the Margins too. Under Capacity you define how many people can sleep in this room. The Units of Measure you leave on Units, and the Control Purchase Bills you leave on "on received quantities".
Now we're done with the General Information. Above the line you can see there are more tabs: Inventory, Sales, Variants, Invoicing, and Notes. For this specific product - a room - you can ignore all the other tabs and leave them at their default settings.
You're almost done creating your Room! Now just enter your room name, and click on "Save" at the top left. If you want, you can also add a photo of your room, by clicking on the camera item on the right.
Done! Your room has been created.
