Spot

• The spot’s name, always shown as “Spot” followed by the marker that was entered in the spot’s detail page (1, A, etc.).

• Each spot can be clicked on. This takes you to the Details and Calendar page for that spot.

Zone

• The lot zone the spot is part of.

Hourly Price, Daily Price, Monthly Price

• Each column shows the hourly, daily, and monthly price for the spot.

• Any price can be edited here by double-clicking on the price.

  • If you want to permanently change prices for spots at your lot, we recommend contacting our team at hello@parkade.com.

Simple Pricing?

• Simple Pricing is a feature in which just an hourly price is set, and then the weekly and monthly prices are calculated automatically based on that.

• If simple pricing is enabled for a spot, this will have a checkmark. If it isn’t enabled, this will have an X.

Headline

• Any headline that’s written for the spot, intended to be additional information about the spot.

Category

• Either Assigned or Unassigned.

• Assigned means that a spot has a unique marker, and that someone would be renting that specific spot.

• Unassigned means there is no specific marker for a spot, such as a lot that has many unlabeled spots, and a parker would park in any open spot.

Owner

• The spot owner. Typically, this is the name of the property.

Spot Type

• Show the type of spot it is, such as standard, accessible, compact, motorcycle, or other options. A spot can only have one type.

• All amenities selected for the spot, such as EV charger, near elevator, indoor, or other options. A spot can have any number of amenities.

To add a new spot, click on the Add button in the upper right corner.

Category

Spot Details

• Enter a spot marker. If it’s a labeled spot, enter just that label, for example, “10” or “B12.”

  • We’ll always automatically put “Spot” before the marker anywhere in the Web Dashboard and in the app.

• Enter a description if you want to provide other information about the spot for people to see when they’re searching.

• Enter any instructions related to the spot, such as how to find the spot. Parkers will see this after they reserve the spot.

Rental Duration

• Set a minimum or maximum rental duration allowed in that spot, if desired. Typically, there is no maximum duration, since having no maximum allows people to book flexible monthly parking.

Lot Zones

• Select the Lot Zone that the spot is in. A lot should have at least one zone set, to indicate areas where spots are. Typically a zone is a floor of a parking garage, outdoor parking, or some other specific area.

Pricing

Amenities

• Select any number of amenities that apply to the spot.

Other ways to get to the Calendar:

• On the Monitor page, click on the spot, and click on Calendar.

• On the Spots page, click on the three-dot icon to the left of a spot, and click Calendar.

• On the Spots page, click on the spot, and click on Calendar.

The Calendar page:

• Shows the current month and the first week of the next month.

• Shows if a day has availability added for that day (meaning it was or is available to show in spot search results).

• Shows if a spot has a reservation on a day.

• Shows all reservations for the month in a table under the calendar.

The calendar shows the current month plus the first week of the next month. Use the arrows at the top to switch months, or click on the “month” and “week” buttons to switch between a monthly and weekly view. The weekly view is useful if a day has many reservations on it and you want to view them more easily.

A day will have an item in it that says Available when availability was added for that day.

• If availability was added for the full day, it will be a solid orange item that says Available.

• If availability was only added for some of the day, there will be a time in the item.

A day will have an item in it that says Booked when someone booked the spot that day.

• If the full day was booked, it will be a solid blue item that says Booked.

• If only some of the day was booked, there will be a time in the item.

• Even if a spot was booked on a day, an item showing availability will also be on that day, since the spot was available to be booked (and, if that reservation gets canceled, the spot will show up for future searches).

• You can click on a Booked calendar item to go to the page for that reservation.

The monthly reservations table under the calendar will show all reservations for that spot in the month selected for the calendar. If you’re looking for a reservation from a particular month, switch to that month first.
