Creating a group booking in Abode allows more than one booking to have the same booking number. It will also allow you to manage the bookings individually if necessary.


(Have a booking you want to add to a group that doesn't quite fit or already exists? How do I add an individual booking to a group?)


There are three easy ways to create a group booking.


Click and drag


  1. Click and hold your mouse down on the calendar (on the first room, first night). With the mouse button still held down - drag down the calendar to select multiple rooms, and across to select multiple nights.

  2. Enter a name for the group and select OK. (Names in the group can be edited afterwards)



Add individual rooms

  1. Select the date and room/bed for the first guest.



  2. Enter the necessary booking information and then select Open Group.


  3. Select 'New' from the table. Select an available room/bed from the list. It will copy the information from the first booking if available.




Bulk add room types


  1. For big bookings and add several rooms/beds at once, select Add Multiple Rooms.



  2. You can search by Room (1), filter by Type (2), select all in the list (3), select individually (4), and once complete save changes (5).





Managing group bookings


  1. Individual fields can be changed from the group booking screen, or you can open each individual booking.



  2. Make bulk changes to a group using the bottom line of the table. Also view the group invoice using the total Cost.



  3. You can also make group actions using the main buttons on the screen.
