      Add Site Type To All Applicable Rules 

      Before considering your new Site Type as bookable for reservations, add it to all existing Rules that should apply to it. If the new Site Type should have different Rules applied, create new Rules. 

      As a best practice, all Rules should be considered prior to making a new Site Type bookable.

      To update Rules, click on the primary navigation icon and select Rules.
