Assigning Custom Statuses to Products

Custom statuses must be assigned to each product where they should be available:

  2. Navigate to the Booking Setup tab.

  3. In the Custom Reservation Status field, add the status(es) to this product.

  4. Click Save.

  2. Click Add New.

  3. Enter a Name for the reason (e.g., "End of Season", "Early Departure - Personal", "Non-Payment").

  4. Click Save.

When checking out a reservation, staff can select the applicable departure reason. The selected reason is stored on the reservation record and available in reports.


Referral Reasons

Referral Reasons track how guests discovered your campground. This information is captured during reservation creation and can be analyzed in reports to measure marketing channel effectiveness.

Creating Referral Reasons

  1. Navigate to Campground → Settings → Referral Reasons.

  2. Click Add New.

  3. Enter a Name for the referral source (e.g., "Google Search", "Word of Mouth", "Return Guest", "Facebook Ad").

  4. Click Save.

During reservation creation, staff can select the referral reason. The field is optional and informational only — it does not affect pricing or availability.


Product Categories

Product Categories are optional groupings for organizing campground products. They are used for filtering the product list and for categorizing data in reports.

Creating Product Categories

  1. Navigate to Campground → Settings → Product Categories.

  2. Click Add New.

  3. Enter a Name for the category (e.g., "RV Full Hookup", "Tent Sites", "Premium Waterfront").
