Product Set Up
Step 1: Setting up Assets
To start you will need to create any assets that will be used with this product. Navigate to Products > Settings > Assets and then click Add.
Under Asset Name name this asset something appropriate and identifiable as this will be shown on dashboards, reports, and manifests and sometimes directly to customers.
Unlike other asset management strategies under Asset Quantity this is the capacity of the asset. This number represents the number of seats or passengers this asset holds.
Step 2: Setting up your product
Set up your product as you typically would under Basic and Advanced settings, but under Schedule Settings > Time Slot Capacity configuration, you will select Allow Single Use During Set Time (Up To Time Slot Capacity) for the Asset Management Strategy. Select the assets created in the previous step. A section titled Allow Single Use During Set Time (Up To Time Slot Capacity) will be present at the bottom of this screen.
Select Optimize for Assets. Click here to learn more about these optimizations.
