Booking Categories are a new concept that essentially group your Reservation Types into their core purpose—Daycare, Boarding, Grooming, Private Training, Group Training, Board & Train, and Other. When first using the new page, if you already have all of your reservation types set up in Gingr, you’ll find that all of your reservation types will initially be aligned under the Unassigned category. 

Assigning Booking Categories is not required, however it is recommended to help you organize your offerings and further improve load times. It will also allow you to take advantage of future related features such as the ability to limit calendar views as well as run reporting by Booking Category. 

Follow the steps below to easily reassign your reservation types to their corresponding categories.

Update Booking Categories

1. Navigate to Admin > Reservation Types and Services Configuration.
   
   
2. Select Manage Categories.
   
   
   
3. Choose from the Assignable Items section on the left-hand side, and drag and drop each reservation type into its corresponding Booking Category on the right.

Once you have assigned all of your Reservation Types to their corresponding Booking Categories, they will then populate under each category when you navigate back to the Reservation Types and Services Configuration page!
