This article will show you how to create a Facility Permit. The Facility Permit Editor allows you to quickly create permits. You can add large permits all at once, bill them out, and show your customers a finished invoice.

Important Notes:
You cannot add existing reservations to a permit when you use the Facility Permit Editor. Instead, you must generate permits via the calendar.
If you create and save a permit with 200 or more reservations, the Permit Editor will automatically run Background Jobs. This means the permit will not be saved right away. Instead, the system will process it in the background and notify you when the job is finished.

Instructions

Notes:
- The reservation will automatically be added using the Dates & Times you set earlier.

Note:
When a new reservation conflicts with an existing one, and the Conflict view option is turned on, {{variable.Recreation Management}} will highlight the conflict in red in the Preview.
