Introduction

The Reservations Calendar is one of the most important parts of the PMS. It's a tool that helps have an overall view of the reservations in relation to time.

The calendar is responsive, meaning it will show you less information and capabilities on a mobile phone (due to screen limitations), while it will show you more information if you have a large screen. For example, on a Samsung S series phone, you will see around 7 days, while on a 1920x1080 pixels desktop screen you can see up to 2,5 months.

In the Reservations Calendar there is no right mouse click functionality, in order to provide a unified user experience among different devices (smartphone, tablet, laptop). For example, on a tablet there is no concept of "right click". The tools though behaves differently in single and double clicks (on finger taps).

The Reservations Calendar consists of a toolbar and the mail calendar.

The Toolbar

The toolbar has various buttons that are grouped together:
