2 Manage from CALENDAR
In the CALENDAR you have the option to add a note to a unit or a status value. Preset unit status values can be defined in (SETTINGS) ACCOUNT->PREFERENCES. Note that only the account owning a property can change the status. To use this feature (SETTINGS) ACCOUNT->PREFERENCES "Calendar Style" should be set to "All Units". Only the account owning a property can change the status.
You can also add a note to store information for a room.
If you do not need the status selector your can hide it. Click on the 'User' icon on the top right and then on 'Account Management (in the old control panel SUB ACCOUNT in the top right) click on "Manage Account" and enter calendar-unitstatus in the "Hide menu pages" field.

If you want to automate the process you can set up an Auto Action which automatically changes the unit status when a guest arrives.

An optional color used to highlight the status can be added to the end of each line using CSS format (# and 6 character code) like follows:
colorful status #992200

There are several options:
