Divide a house into separately bookable units

Room dependencies allow you to offer one unit as a whole and at the same time offer parts individually.


Example 1: A holiday house which consits two separate apartments (Apartment1 and Apartment2). Apartment2 can be split up into two separtely bookable apartments (Apartment2A and Apartment2B). Also the complete house is for rent. To set this up you will need to set up five rooms in SETTINGS -> ROOMS:

  • House
  • Apartment1
  • Apartment2
  • Apartment2A
  • Apartment2B

Dependencies work in both directions - to be available the larger unit needs the smaller unit to be available. To achieve this set following dependencies in SETTINGS -> ROOMS -> SETUP Dependencies:

  • House - Requires Availability in: Apartment1 and Apartment 2, Check Availability: Including Dependencies
  • Apartment1 - Requires Availability in: House, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Apartment2 - Requires Availability in: House, Apartment2a, Apartment 2B Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Apartment2A - Requires Availability in: House, Apartment2 Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Apartment2B - Requires Availability in: House, Apartment2 Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Combination Logic: All rooms must be available for all rooms (this is the default)

Example 2: A holiday house with 10 bedrooms can be rented completely, or split up in two apartments (Apartment4 and Apartment6). Also each room is separately bookable as B&B room. Apartment4 has four separtely bookable B&B rooms, Apartment6 has six separtely bookable B&B rooms. Also the complete house is for rent. To set this up you will need to set up thirteen rooms in SETTINGS -> ROOMS:

  • House
  • Apartment6
  • B&B1
  • B&B 2
  • B&B3
  • B&B4
  • B&B5
  • B&B6
  • Apartment4
  • B&B7
  • B&B8
  • B&B9
  • B&B10

Dependencies work in both directions - to be available the larger unit needs the smaller unit to be available. To achieve this set following dependencies in SETTINGS -> ROOMS -> SETUP Dependencies:

  • House - Requires Availability in: Apartment6 and Apartment4, Check Availability: : Including Dependencies
  • Apartment6 - Requires Availability in: House,and B&B1 and B&B2 and B&B3 and B&B4 and B&B5 and B&B6 Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B1 - Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B2- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B3- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B4- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B5- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B6- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment6, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Apartment4 - Requires Availability in: House and B&B7 and B&B8 and B&B9 and B&B10, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B7- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment4, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B8- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment4, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B9- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment4, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • B&B 10- Requires Availability in: House and Apartment4, Check Availability: Ignoring Dependencies
  • Combination Logic: All rooms must be available for all rooms (this is the default)

If you are using dependencies please test thoroughly to make sure your setup relfects your rules.
