📘 EXAMPLE 1
Select ‘Weekday’ on one axis and ‘Month’ on the other. Select Sunday in January and change the capacity from 47 to 40.
RESULT: The sum of tickets for Sunday bookings throughout January can not exceed 40. Once the capacity is reached, no more bookings for Sunday in January can be made.

📘 EXAMPLE 2
Select the 'Date' view. You can select specific dates and change capacity and resource allocation for that day, or press the BULK CHANGE button to change product availability across multiple modifiers at a time. With the bulk actions feature, you can:
specify date ranges (e.g., all dates within a specific week or month),
open multiple dates that were previously closed,
apply capacity changes to multiple dates in one action.

Bulk Change
📒 NOTE
Each modifier combination (Weekday-Month, Tour-Month, Source-Weekday, Date) is unique to that pair (in the case of Date it is a month-year pair) and will not be reflected using the other combinations. It is therefore good practice to make as few changes to availability as possible to keep track of your settings.
