You can select to either have the properties load and display when the page is loading or the properties are only shown once the dates and other filters / search criteria have been selected.

This can be a handy option when you have a lot, e.g.more than 20 properties, but want to keep the loading time down.

It is possible to load only specific properties groups as a default.
This can be handy when a specific group of properties is used more than others.
Select the property group from the drop down menu. All property groups that have been created in Properties > Property groups will show in this drop down menu.

Select the relevant group from the drop down menu.

It is showing to the right of the date range selection options.

You can select multiples of 3 months from the drop down menu.

The default start date is the date from which the calendar in the grid view starts. It's the most left hand date.
The default is set to today, meaning only future dates are showing in the grid view.
If you require to have an eye on previous weeks, you can set the default start date up to 6 weeks in the past.
To do that, select the number of weeks in the drop down menu.

Examples

If you have a large number of properties, having the column with the dates at the top and bottom of the list of properties might not be enough.
With this setting you can add further date lines after so many properties.

When the option has been selected to be used by ticking the box, the number of properties can be set to any number bigger than 10.
After 10(+) properties a date row will be inserted.

Example:
- there are 11 properties in the account
- after 10 properties a new date line should be shown

These codes are used for defining colours on/for websites. They are always starting with # and as they are expressed using the hexadecimal number system.

The decimal number system used worldwide is based on 10. The hexadecimal number system is based on the number 16. This means that the numbers 1 - 9 as well as the characters A - F are being used to write the numbers.

Example:

Clicking into the colour field on the right hand side opens a small pop-up, allowing you to select a colour directly.
Move the small dot and see what colour would be applied in the long bar at the bottom of the pop-up.

If set to Yes, the guest name or other information about the booking is being displayed.

If set to No, the bookings are just blocks of colour without any further information showing.

If you have a large number of properties, you can reduce the number of properties showing on each page of the grid view.
The default is set to 25.

This options allows you to display property names in full that are rather long without them being truncated.

Without this option checked the name will be truncated (shortened) to 2 lines. Any remainder of the property name will be cut off.

There is the option to print and/or download the data from the grid view.
To do this click the download button and then select one the these three icons.

When the option to download all properties has not been selected, only the properties showing on the initial page will be exported.
If you have more properties, displaying on multiple pages, it might be an idea to have this options turned on, as you otherwise might miss information you require.
