Booking Status & Pipeline Stages

Track your sales process more accurately with Booking Statuses and Pipeline Stages. Here's how they differ and when to use each.

Updated this week

What Are Booking Statuses?

Statuses help define the stage of commitment in the sales cycle. These are hardcoded, color-coded, and visible across the platform:

  • Lead (Grey): Initial inquiry; not yet booked.

  • Tentative (Yellow): Holding the space or waiting on contract signature.

  • Definite (Green): Booking is confirmed with a signed agreement.

  • Lost (Red): Business not won—either declined or booked elsewhere.

Note: Groups and Events within a Booking can have their own Status, separate from the main Booking.


What Are Pipeline Stages?

Pipeline Stages help track where a Booking is in your custom sales journey. These are editable by Admins and vary by property.

Default examples include:

  • New Inquiry: First contact (call, email, form, etc.)

  • Qualifying: Reviewing guest needs and fit

  • Proposal Sent: Customized quote sent

  • Contract Sent: Awaiting signature on formal agreement

  • Confirmed: Booking is finalized and usually paid

Use Pipeline Stages for more granular visibility alongside Statuses.

  • Add multiple filters or save views for reuse

  • Filter Calendars by Status—unchecked statuses won’t appear


⚠️ Important Considerations

  • Both Booking Status & Pipeline Stage must be updated manually

  • When changing a Status to Lead, Tentative, or Definite, you can optionally update associated Group and Event statuses

  • Changing a Booking Status to Lost will automatically update all Groups and Events to Lost

  • Add a Lost Reason to track why the business wasn’t wonBooking Statuses and Pipeline Stages are used to track the sales process and history of a Booking.
