   OPTION: Inventory Module If your operation has complicated rules to set availability by for example:
   You have a lodge for 20, 3 vehicles for transporting clients, 20 pieces of rental gear and advertise a 3,5,7 day tour all using the same inventory the Adventure Engine system can handle it.
   If a group books out Dec 25-28th with a 3 day booking the 5 and 7 day will no longer be available.(unless the system manager overrides)
   
   It is perfect for lodges, ships, tours using multi inventory shared across trips that affect availability.
   
   In our experience most tourism operators can mange with the base module and extra to manage their inventory and rentals but if you have a complex scenario like the one above - we can handle it. And our staff set it up for you!
   
8. rule setting: inventory is assigned rules like:
   - is it included or an additional cost
   - is it mandatory or optional
   - is this item viewable by the client during booking or just for management
   - does this item affect availability or not
9. black out dates
10. inventory build - a "parent" can be set like Lodge A then "children" added like all the rooms and their individual capacity create availability for the parent lodge.
11. transfer clients from one inventory item to another
12. full reporting
13. inventory is created then assigned to trips, one change to inventory automatically updates all trips that use it
