# Bookings & Calendar FAQs

## Bookings & Reservations

### How do I create a booking manually?
Go to **Bookings**, select the **Properties** or **Services** tab, and click on a date in the calendar. A side panel opens where you can enter the guest details (name, email, phone, dates). Click **Save**.
→ See: *Creating a Reservation Manually*

### How do I see all my bookings?
Go to **Reservations** in the sidebar for a list view of all bookings. You can also go to **Bookings → Properties** for a calendar view, or check the **Overview** dashboard for today's check-ins and check-outs.

### How do I confirm a pending booking?
Open the booking by clicking on it in the calendar or reservations list. Click the **Confirm Booking** button.

### How do I cancel a booking?
Open the booking and click **Cancel Booking**. You'll see a confirmation prompt before the cancellation goes through.

### What do the booking statuses mean?
**Pending** = created but not yet confirmed. **Confirmed** = locked in. **Checked In** = guest has arrived. **Checked Out** = guest has departed. **Cancelled** = booking was cancelled.

### How do I mark a guest as checked in or checked out?
Open the booking and update the status using the action buttons. You can change the status from Confirmed → Checked In → Checked Out as the guest progresses through their stay.

### Can I filter bookings by listing or date?
Yes. Use the filters on the **Reservations** page to narrow by listing, date range, or status.

### Where can I see which platform a booking came from?
The booking details show the source — whether it's a manual booking, from Airbnb, Booking.com, or your direct booking website.

### How do I block dates on my calendar (e.g., for personal use)?
Create a manual booking for those dates. This blocks the calendar and prevents double-bookings.
