Events overview

Most properties have spaces beyond guest rooms — meeting rooms, ballrooms, garden lawns, restaurant private rooms — and most of those spaces earn money when booked for an event. The Events module is where you sell, schedule, and bill those bookings without conflicting with the rest of the property's operation.

Venues — the spaces you rent out

Backoffice → Venues. A venue has a name and image (shown in selection), a status, max capacity, area, and an optional pospointId so F&B charged during the event flows into the linked POS point's revenue. The four pricing fields (base_rate, per_day, per_hour, per_person) cover the common ways venues are priced — fill in whichever apply to that venue.

The events calendar

Events module → Calendar. Shows every event by venue and date with status colors. Drag-and-zoom navigation; filter by venue, status, or tag. The calendar is the natural starting point for new bookings — pick a slot, click, and the create-event flow opens with the venue and date pre-selected.

The five-step create flow

1. Select venue — pick from the venue grid; capacity and pricing are visible up front.
2. Choose date — start and end timestamps; the calendar checks for conflicts.
3. Select clients — host (the person booking), optional billing party (a company), and the attendee list.
4. Extra details — pricing model and amount, menu, services (audio-visual, decoration, transfers), tags, internal notes, event manager.
5. Confirm — review, generate the receipt preview, and save. Status defaults to CONFIRMED, type defaults to private; tweak if needed.

After confirmation

Open the event from the calendar or list to add or remove attendees, swap menu, add services after the fact, take payments, and print the event sheet for the operations team.
