''This page is about the Menu  SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES -> ROOMS -> DEPENDENCIES''
 
You can make a room only be available when another room is also available.
 
 
 
'''Room Availability:''' This setting is useful if for example this is a suite that is composed of this and an adjoining room or you are offering a more exclusive occupancy (at higher price?) when another room is unoccupied. A booking for this room will block the other room for the duration of the booking.
 
 
 
'''Requires Availability in:''' Defines the other second room which has to be available.
 
 
 
'''Combination Logic:''' And logic means both rooms must be available
 
Or logic means at least one of the rooms must be available.
 
 
 
'''Bookings Dependency: ''' Bookings in the selected room will be included in this room for the purpose of calculating the availability of this room.
 
 
 
Alternatively you can use:
 
 
 
'''Assign Bookings to:''' By default web bookings for a room will be assigned to the selected room. It can be manually assigned to a different room. If assigned to a different room the booking will be assigned there without further checking availability in the assigned room.
 
 
 
'''Assign a Copy Booking to:''' A copy of the booking can be placed in another room. This can be used to control availability in dependant and linked rooms.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Example 1'''
 
 
 
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 to SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES and set:
 
 
 
*For the double set following  "Requires Availability in": twin
 
*For the twin set "Requires Availability in": double
 
 
 
Leave all other settings set to default.
 
 
 
'''Example 2'''
 
A villa is set up in two different properties. One offers 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 for the "package" will make the "villa only" unavailable and vice versa.
 
 
 
To achieve this set following dependencies in SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES for the room "package":
 
*"Requires Availability in": 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.
