Reserving equipment in Rentman allows you to allocate equipment to specific projects, effectively "holding" them, preventing them from being booked on another project. You can prioritize and streamline your project planning to ensure accurate bookings and reliable future forecasts. 

Project status can affect when your equipment is reserved, based on whether the reservation is Pending or Confirmed.

Project Status: Pending or any previous status

If the status of your project is Pending, equipment will not be automatically reserved for this project. The same applies to the statuses before Pending, such as Inquiry and Draft.

Project Status: Confirmed

If the status of your project is Confirmed, available equipment will be automatically reserved for this project. Each item is reserved for its own time.

Tip: Add the column of Equipment Status in your projects to quickly see your reservation status

Reservations follow the time of each item

Equipment is reserved for the time of each equipment item, and not for one time that is shared by the whole project or equipment group. Each item has its own planning period and usage period.

For example, if you set the planning period of the projectors to start on Wednesday, the projectors stay available for another project until then.
