When managing your daily rentals, using the Check-in option will allow you to easily keep track of rentals that are out for the day and when they come back. If you've enabled and customized your Check-in/Check Out, then users in the system can use the Check-in tab in the system to check in customers.
The Check-in tab in your system will show all bookings that are scheduled for the the current date. To check in a customer, click on that tab to get started.
There are 3 tabs on the Check-in page:
- Check In: will list all rentals that are scheduled and have not been check in for the day
- Check out: will list all rentals that have been check in, but not yet returned for the day
- All: will show a complete list of all rentals that have been checked in and out
To Check In a rental when the customer arrives, select the green Check in button to the right of the customer details.
- Review the customer details, rental information, and booking times.
- If enabled, you can update the inventory from the Units section
- Fill out any additional options that have been customized such as Additional Charges and Waivers
