Dashboard, calendar and reports

3 min read

Three pages in the app show how your rentals are doing. The Dashboard is today: what goes out, what comes back and what is late. The Calendar is the month or week ahead. Reports shows how hard each product worked and lets you export your bookings.

The dashboard #

PartWhat it shows
The dayToday, with arrows to look at the day before or after.
Conflicts bannerBookings that need attention, with Review conflicts. See Managing bookings.
Going outOrders and units that start today, and how many are not yet sent.
Due backOrders and units that end today, and how many are already back.
OverdueUnits still out after their rental ended, with the oldest one.
Currently outUnits out right now, and their share of your stock.
The three listsEach rental going out, due back or overdue, with one action per row (Check out or Check in) and Open Send & Return at the foot.
Next 7 daysUnits going out and coming back each day, with Open calendar.
RevenueThis month (rentals starting this month) and the last 30 days, compared with the 30 days before.
Setup lineSetup: all good, or what needs fixing.

With pay part now switched on, a Balances due this week tile is added. Blocked dates and synced calendar dates take stock but never show as going out or coming back.

The calendar #

  • Month or Week, and Out / In (how many units go out and come in each day) or By order (a bar per booking, tinted by its status).
  • All products narrows it to one product.
  • Closed days are hatched.
  • Click a day to see its rentals: Going out, Due back and Out all day, each with Check out or Check in, and Open Send & Return for this day. On a wide screen the day shows in a panel beside the calendar; on a narrow one it opens in a window.
  • Click a booking bar to open the booking.

For a calendar that updates by itself, use the product’s calendar feeds instead. See Calendar sync (iCal).

Good to know #

  • Revenue counts the rental price of bookings that start in the period, without cancelled bookings and net of refunded units. It doesn’t include shipping, taxes or other products on the order.
  • The inventory grid is on its own page. See Inventory and stock.
