If you want to offer your inventory in bundles or if any of your inventory options share resources (rentals, staff, vehicles, etc) with other, overlapping options, you can use resource management to dynamically adjust your availability based on those resources.

You can also use a linked availability rule if it works better for your use case, but resources tend to be more flexible and allow you to manage your availability more precisely.

If you’d like to use linked availability instead, you can do so in the Rules menu. The Link Availability action needs to be used with the Inventory Item condition so that you can select all the options that need to be linked. If you don’t set any Inventory Item conditions then your entire inventory’s availability will be linked.

To create a rule that uses the Link Availability action, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to Inventory > Rules in the main menu.

2. Click Create Rule.

3. Give your rule a name that’s easy to recognize (1), and a description of what it will do (2).

4. Click Add Condition.

5. Click Inventory being booked is...

6. Select the options you want to link.
