Also you can always check a guest in by opening the booking and setting the info code "Checkin" in the "Info" tab.

You can:
=== Add content ===

*'''Housekeeping'''

*Google doc, sheet or form
*calendar
<span style="color:#007bff;“ >{{#far:question-circle}} </span> The display of many components on one dashboard can affect the performance. Consider using multiple dashboards instead.
