Anytime you make a new booking you will be taken to the New Booking Window.

The top header contains the Booking Data selected from the Tape Chart, Booking By Inquiry or Booking By Availability.

This means that the Arrival, # Nights and Departure field will already be filled in based on selections made when initiating the booking and can't be changed in the new booking window.

Once the booking is created, you can modify dates in the Edit Tab of the booking.

The Number of guests, Room Type, Room Number and Rate Plan can all be defined or modified here. See an explanation of each field below.
