A booking for this room will block the other room for the duration of the booking. following functions
'''Requires Availability in:''' Defines the other second 1. Room availability dependant on another room which has to be available.
'''Combination Logic:''' And logic means both rooms must be availableOr logic means at least one of the rooms must be available2. Include bookings from another room into this room.

A room can be sold either as a double or a twin. The booking page shows two rooms - double and twin: *Create two rooms in SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES-> ROOMS  Got If this setting allows linking to SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES and set: *For the double set following "Requires Availability in": twin*For the twin set "Requires Availability properties in": double Leave all other settings set to default.  '''Example 2'''A villa is set up in two different properties. One offers accounts, the villa as accommodation (the room name is villa only) only the other one offers the villa as part of a package (the room name is package).  As it is the same villa a booking rooms will be available for linking with the "package" will make the "villa only" unavailable and vice versa.  To achieve this rights set following dependencies in SETTINGS-SUB ACCOUNT >> MANAGE > ACCOUNT >>PROPERTIES-MANAGE PROPERTY >ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES for the room "package":*"Requires Availability Make Property Available inMultiple Accounts": villa only*"Assign Bookings to" = this room*"Assign a Copy Booking to" = villa only Leave all other settings set to default.  '''Note''': If you are using dependencies please test thoroughly to make sure your set up reflects your rules.
