We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

Approve or Deny Pending Reservations

  • Updated:

The Pending Rentals module is a dedicated view for rentals pending admin approval. This article will show you how to view and approve/deny pending reservations. 

 

 

Important Notes

  • Administrators making reservations (public or internal) do not need to be declined or approved under the pending rentals section of the facilities module.
  • The balance is put on the account at the end of the reservation, but no permit is generated until after the reservation is approved for public users or non-admin staff.
  • Once the rental is approved the balance stays, the permit is generated, the calendar is reserved, and the customer can pay the balance due.
  • Once the rental is declined - the balance is removed, the transaction is removed, and the calendar is cleared.
  • If a request is part of a recurring reservation, when one reservation is declined then all reservations will be declined. Once the reservation is adjusted, add a note in the notes section that it has been declined. You will then need to delete the declined reservations from the calendar
