Managing Equipment

How to add, edit, and organize your rental equipment in Resytech.

Adding Equipment

  1. Navigate to Dashboard > Equipment
  2. Click Add Equipment
  3. Fill in the details:
    • Name — display name shown to customers (e.g., "Single Kayak", "Mountain Bike")
    • Description — short summary displayed in equipment lists and cards
    • Quantity — number of identical units you have in stock (determines availability)
    • Capacity — maximum number of guests a single unit can carry
    • Default Occupancy — number of guests each unit inherently carries (defaults to 1). Used for automatic seat calculations when customers add equipment to a booking.
    • Activity Assignments — select which activities this equipment should be available for

Equipment Settings Reference

Every piece of equipment has the following configurable fields:

SettingDescription
NameDisplay name shown to customers during checkout
DescriptionShort text description shown on equipment cards

QuantityTotal number of identical units in your inventory

Default OccupancyGuests each unit inherently carries (e.g., 1 for a jet ski)
Additional PriceA flat surcharge added to the base rental price for this equipment
EnabledToggle to show or hide this equipment from customers without deleting it

Custom Properties

Define properties that describe your equipment. Each property has the following fields:

FieldDescription
NameThe property label (e.g., "Size", "Color", "Weight")
ValueThe property value (e.g., "Large", "Red", "25 lbs")
Icon TypeHow the icon is displayed: 0 = no icon, 1 = built-in icon, 2 = custom icon
IconThe icon identifier or URL (required when Icon Type is 1 or 2)
DescriptionOptional descriptive text for the property
FeaturedWhen enabled, this property is prominently displayed on equipment cards in the checkout

Common Property Examples

  • Size — S, M, L, XL or specific measurements
  • Color — available color options
  • Type/Model — specific make or model
  • Weight — equipment weight for customer reference
  • Any custom attribute — whatever is relevant to your inventory

Properties help customers choose the right item and help your team identify equipment.

Equipment Media

Upload and manage photos for each piece of equipment:

  • Multiple images — add as many photos as needed to showcase the equipment
  • Ordering — drag and reorder media to control which image appears first
  • Thumbnails — Resytech automatically generates thumbnail versions of uploaded images
  • Description — add optional alt text or captions to each image

The first image in the order is used as the primary display image on equipment cards.

Pricing

Set rental pricing for your equipment:

  • Hourly rate — for short-term rentals
  • Daily rate — for full-day or multi-day rentals
  • Custom duration pricing — define rates for specific time periods
  • Additional price — a flat surcharge on top of the activity base price when this specific equipment is selected

Pricing modifiers (seasonal, day-of-week) work the same as with activities. See Pricing & Modifiers.

Activity Assignments

Equipment must be assigned to at least one activity to be bookable. Each assignment has its own settings:

SettingDescription
ActivityThe activity this equipment is assigned to
QuantityHow many units are allocated to this activity (can be less than total inventory)
EnabledWhether the equipment is currently available for this activity

Activities can also configure equipment behavior at the activity level:

  • Max equipment per booking — limits the total number of equipment items in a single booking
  • Allow equipment mixing — when enabled, customers can select different types of equipment in one booking. When disabled, they must choose a single equipment type.

Enabling and Disabling Equipment

Toggle the Enabled setting to control visibility:

  • Enabled — equipment appears in checkout and is available for booking
  • Disabled — equipment is hidden from customers but retains all configuration. Existing bookings are not affected.

This is useful for seasonal equipment or items temporarily out of service.

Multi-Day Rentals

For equipment rented over multiple days, Resytech calculates the end date from the duration and handles:

  • Overnight transitions
  • Weekend spans
  • Timezone-aware date boundaries
  • DST transitions during the rental period
