Motor Pool Recurring Reservations

Recurring reservations allow you to automatically create repeating motor pool reservations on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule. This is ideal for departments or customers who reserve vehicles on a consistent cadence and want to avoid manually recreating reservations each time. This feature is included with Platinum Tiers and up.

  1. On the reservation screen, locate the Repeating dropdown and click on it.

Handling Conflicts and Errors

  • A category where no assets are available,

You will see a notification indicating that some reservations may require adjustment, along with links to the affected reservations.

Overlapping Duration Errors

If the reservation duration is longer than the recurrence frequency (for example, a 48-hour reservation repeating every 24 hours), the system will prevent saving and display this message:

“This reservation can’t repeat yet — the current booking lasts longer than the time between recurrences. Try shortening the duration or scheduling the recurrence farther apart.”
