Managing tentative bookings, group blocks, or maintenance rooms just got dramatically easier in Zitlin PMS.
The New Way to Handle Future Reservations
No more forced room assignments the moment a booking is created. Zitlin now fully supports future bookings without assigning rooms — perfect for:
- Group inquiries and tentative holds
- Corporate or travel-agent blocks
- Waiting-list reservations
- Maintenance or deep-clean blocks
These “unassigned” bookings appear clearly in your system and on the booking engine (if you choose), but they don’t block any physical room until you’re ready.
Better Blocked Room Display in Calendar View
We completely redesigned how blocked and unassigned reservations appear in the grid/calendar view:
- Dedicated “Unassigned / To Be Assigned” row at the top
- Clearer visual distinction for blocked rooms (maintenance, out-of-order, staff use)
- Color-coded blocks with hover details
Staff instantly see what’s blocked, what’s tentative, and what’s available — reducing overbooking stress and improving daily operations.
