The number of selected vehicles determines the effective stock count. | {% hint style="warning" %} **Hotel type**: only the *Automatically* option is shown; manual vehicle assignment is not available for hotel rooms. {% endhint %} ## 3) Example

## 4) Manage Inventory In this plugin, we give 2 options to support you to manage inventory: ### 1: Automatically: If you have 3 identical products, there’s no need to create 3 individual products for them, Simply: * Firstly, create **a single product** * Then, go to the "**Inventory"** section, choose **"Automatically"** for "Control inventory" , and set the "S**tock Quantity" to 3**. This allows your customers to order between **1 and 3 units** of the product.

Suppose you have **3 Vios cars available for rent**. If a customer books all 3 cars for the period **from May 28, 2024 to May 30, 2024**, then **no other customer will be able to book these cars during that time**, since they are fully reserved. ### 2: Manually : Use this feature if you want to manage individual products based on **unique IDs** — for example, license plate numbers or asset codes. {% stepper %} {% step %} ### Create Vehicle Go to **BRW → Manage Vehicle → Add New Vehicle** * Enter the **Vehicle Name** * Add a **Unique Vehicle ID** (e.g., license plate number) * **Require Location**: Select **Yes** or **No** depending on whether you want to assign a location to the vehicle. * Add **Unavailable Time** ( optional ) **Example:** Suppose you have **3 identical BMW cars**, but you want to manage them individually based on their license plates: `30A456`, `29B123`, and `31C765`. In this case, you will create **3 separate vehicle entries**, each with its own unique ID.

{% endstep %} {% step %} ### **Assign Vehicles Manually to Product** * Firstly, Go to **Products >> Add New >> Inventory** * In the "Control inventory" dropdown, select "**Manually"** value * A new field **“Choose Vehicles”** will appear * Select the vehicles you created in **Step 1**

{% endstep %} {% step %} ### Display in the Frontend When a customer places a booking for one of these products, their order will be assigned to a specific vehicle by its **unique ID**.\ That means the customer **must receive the exact vehicle** (with the ID shown in their order confirmation).

{% endstep %} {% step %} ### Manage Vehicle in Backend * View the vehicle ID of a booking Go to: **BRW >> Manage Bookings**

* Search Order by vehicle go to: **BRW >> Manage Bookings**

* Check Available Vehicle IDs of any product in any time. Go to: **BRW >> Booking Calendar**
