Can the system hold back a percentage of inventory when taking bookings online?

The short answer YES - it can.

Imagine a very busy rental operation. You are taking online bookings and walk-ins. The system is doing a great job of seamlessly merging your online and in-store rental streams without overlap.

But there is no margin for error. Like late returns, breakages, accidents etc.

To cope with this the system can let you:

specify a percentage to 'hold back' in reserve when talking online bookings.
let you set this threshold at the product line level
alert you when you get close to your limits.
still take bookings in the back office as you like.

To set this up visit your Inventory - Product Line

for each PL you can specify from 0 - 100%(default is zero)
