How do I add rooms, including in bulk?

Add rooms one at a time, or upload a whole property's worth from a spreadsheet.

  1. 1

    Create a sharing type first

    Both Add room and Bulk upload stay disabled until the property has at least one sharing type — that's what tells the app how many beds a room has and what it costs. See How do I set up sharing types? if you haven't done this yet.

  2. 2

    Add a single room

    Property → Floors & Rooms tab → Add room. Fill in:

    • Floor — pick from the dropdown or type a custom name
    • Room number — e.g. 101
    • Sharing type — select the tier

    Optionally override rent, refundable deposit, or non-refundable deposit for this specific room; leave them blank to inherit the sharing type's defaults (the placeholder shows you what's inherited).

    Beds are created automatically from the sharing type's bed count — you'll see a toast like "Room 101 added with 3 beds".

  3. 3

    Bulk upload many rooms at once

    For a new property, adding rooms one at a time is slow. Click Bulk upload (next to Add room) to open the "Bulk upload rooms" dialog.

    1. Click Download template — you get a rooms-template.xlsx with dropdowns already populated with your property's floor names and sharing types
    2. Fill in one row per room (Floor, room number, sharing type)
    3. Choose the file and click Upload

    The file must be .xlsx — CSV isn't accepted. Use the downloaded template rather than building your own sheet, since its dropdowns prevent most typos.

  4. 4

    Review the upload results

    After uploading you get a results table — Row / Floor / Room / Status / Detail — with counts like "18 created" and "2 failed". Failed rows tell you why (e.g. a room number that already exists, or a sharing type name that doesn't match).

    Use Export results to download the outcome as CSV, fix the failed rows, and click Upload another file. Successfully created rooms are kept — re-uploading only the failures is safe. Click Done when finished.
