Classify Reservations and Events

Every reservation and event has a classification — a label that says what kind of booking or event it is. Classifications make it easy to separate, filter and color-code the different kinds of activity on your equipment, and they determine which completion action Itefy suggests when a reservation ends.

Available classifications

RepairReservations & eventsCreate event
OtherReservations & eventsMark completed

New reservations default to Usage; new events default to Maintenance.

Setting the classification

  • When creating: both the new-reservation and new-event windows have a classification selector near the top — just click the kind you want.
  • On a reservation: open the reservation and click the colored classification badge in the header to change it. For a recurring reservation, the classification applies to the whole series.
  • On an event: open the event and click Edit, then pick a classification.

Suggested completion action

The classification decides which completion option is suggested when you open a reservation's More menu: for example, a maintenance reservation suggests Create event (marked "Default"), while a usage reservation suggests Create checkout. All completion options remain available regardless of classification — the suggestion is just a shortcut, never a restriction.

When you complete a reservation as an event, the event automatically inherits the reservation's classification (a repair reservation becomes a repair event).

Filtering and calendars

  • The reservations and events list pages have a Classification section in the Filter by dropdown, so you can show only certain kinds.
  • On calendar views, reservations and events are colored by their classification, and completed reservations appear faded — so a month view instantly shows what kind of activity is planned.

Scheduling a repair from an issue

If an issue requires planned repair work, you can schedule it directly: open the issue, click the menu and choose Schedule repair…. This opens a new reservation prefilled with the issue's items, the Repair classification, and a link back to the issue. The issue page then lists its scheduled reservations, and the reservation shows a From issue link — so the whole chain from problem to planned repair to performed work stays connected.
