Booking process step by step
- Inquiry → availability check (product or date + category filters)
- Create order: customer, products, rent, deposit, dispatch & return dates
- Add sub-orders if mehendi, sangeet and wedding need different windows
- Collect payments; apply shop rental tax if configured
- Flag alteration needed when work is required before handover
- Dispatch with invoice / delivery challan; later process return and washing
- Settle deposit (full return or partial hold) and mark complete
Realistic boutique scenario
What not to rely on
- WhatsApp chats as the only booking record
- Verbal “hold” without an order and deposit
- Assuming a notebook “out” column answers a future date
