View your availability
You’ll get a view with your products on the left and time periods (days, hours, etc.) along the top. Each tile represents a period of availability, typically one day.
Tile colors
Each tile is color-coded so you can see what’s available at-a-glance.
Green is available – you have sufficient stock for any orders or reserved quotations.
Orange means you’ve booked all your stock or you’ve hit the buffer percentage set against the product.
Red tiles indicate overbookings – you don’t have sufficient stock to fulfill your orders or reserved quotations.
As your stock is rented or quarantined, a blue bar on each tile appears and grows, a bit like water in a tank or a bar chart.
Tile figures
The numbers on each tile tell you exactly how many you have available, as well as how many you hold, and how many are sub-rented.
