Introduction to Product Events

Product Events modify the price or availability of your inventory products based on date. Without Product Events, your inventory products are simple bookable products available 365 days a year at a fixed (base) price.

Product Events bring products to life by controlling how much you charge for them and when they are available. Product Events can be configured globally across all products in your inventory or on a specific category/product only.

• Dynamically increase/decrease product price for some time (e.g. increase pricing by 20% in December).
• Set new fixed price points in your inventory product setup (e.g. enable high and low seasonal pricing).
• Activate products in your inventory for a specific period (see closed inventory).
• Close out partial or entire parts of your inventory for some time (see open inventory).
• Enforce rule sets and booking policies for a specified time (e.g. set a minimum quantity of 2 on Fridays in May).

If you want to create discounts, voucher offers, and specials, see Discounts.

You can operate an open or a closed inventory.

All your products are available 365 days a year in an open inventory. When creating product, you set the default status as available (default). You can also use Product Events to disable them for any dates.

In a closed inventory, your products are configured as Unavailable by default and only enabled through the dates you define in your Product Events.
