While optimizing your Multi-Calendar, it's easy to drag a reservation to the wrong unit without noticing. That's a problem when a VIP guest needs a specific unit, a family books adjacent rooms, or you already sent the keys and check-in instructions. Lock a reservation's property to protect the assigned unit, so nobody can change or move it until it's unlocked.
The lock applies to the assigned property only. You can still edit the reservation's check-in and check-out dates.
While a reservation's property is locked:
- Change property is disabled
- Reassign to multi-unit is disabled
- Dragging the reservation to a different unit on the Multi-Calendar is blocked
Any of these actions displays a message that the property is locked. Unlock the property, then make the change.
Limitations
Updates made on a booking channel bypass the lock and apply to the reservation normally. The lock prevents changes made in Guesty.
