You may occasionally need to link Rentals together in Sympl. Let’s say you have a House with Room 1 and Room 2. You would like for House bookings to block calendars for Room 1 and Room 2.
You will export a calendar for the House and import it into Room 1 and into Room 2. Configuring this is easy in Sympl, follow the steps below to begin linking.
1. Export House Calendar
Navigate to "iCal Channels" > Add Channel
Select the option to "Export calendar"
Choose "Unknown" channel, then choose the rental for the calendar you are exporting
Click "Export" and copy the exported calendar URL provided
Click "Done"
2. Import House Calendar to Room 1 and Room 2
Stay on the same screen, or repeat the first step from part 1. (iCal Channels > Add Channel)
Select the option to "import calendar"
Give the imported calendar a name
Paste the House calendar URL you copied from part 1 of this guide.
Important: at the end of the calendar URL, append &anonymous=1 When you repeat the Import process for Room 2, you will append &anonymous=2
Select Rental to import this calendar into
Click "Import"
Now, repeat the Import process for Room 2. As a reminder, you will want to append &anonymous=2 to the calendar URL being imported into Room 2.
That's it! Any events on the Whole House calendar will now block the calendars for Room 1 and Room 2.
