You can optionally display your set capacities to a calendar view in order to easily get an overview of if you are at capacity or not for a date. If this feature is enabled, the New Reservation page will allow a user to view availability for a given reservation type, by clicking the “Availability Calendar” button.

Upon clicking, the user will be shown a month-view calendar and whether there is availability for the selected reservation type each date in that month. Users can navigate forwards/backward to different months to view availability.

This feature can be toggled on/off per reservation type, for both the business and customer sides of the application. (i.e. you can display availability to your employees, but not to customers, and for some reservation types but not others.)
