Parameters determine how your product inventory is booked, priced, and allocated. You can add and remove parameters as needed, but remember these options impact your system globally.


You need a minimum of one booking parameter for a product by default. Each parameter has several flags that determine how the parameter is used.


Products use guest types instead of parameters. Learn more about each here:

Creating new parameters
To create a new parameter when using products, click the + Add button in the Booking Parameters section. The options in the resulting pop-up window are described below.


Naming booking parameters

The Name is the title displayed on your booking page, e.g. Adults. This is also shown in some reports.


You can edit the Report ID by clicking on the current label, making the required change, and clicking the blue checkmark button. Note that the Report ID can only change when initially creating a parameter and not at a later time.


Specifying the default quantity for booking parameters

The Default Value is the parameter's default quantity when booking. The default value is automatically added to all bookings for products attached to the parameter.


    Pricing booking parameters

    The Pricing setting allows a price set for this parameter when creating or editing a product.


    Showing multiple price point range

    If the product has multiple price points, you can show this value as a Range (e.g. $99 child - $189 adult).


    Controlling inventory

    The Controls Inventory setting determines whether inventory is removed from the product's inventory upon booking.


    Requiring mandatory minimums

    The Required field allows you to require the parameter to have a minimum of 1 for the booking to proceed.


    Determining visibility

    The Visibility setting determines who the parameter is visible to.

    • Customers & Staff: The parameter is visible during the booking process.
    • Staff Only: Only Staff members can see and access the parameter during the booking process.
    • Hidden to All: The parameter is not visible to either Staff members or Customers.

    Selecting a parameter for use in the Product Builder

    Once a new parameter is created, it becomes available in the Attributes tab of your products. Select the parameter from the Attach an existing Parameter button and click Save.


    Upon doing this, a new pricing band is added to the product's Pricing tab. This lets you configure how much to charge if that parameter is selected during booking.
