If the selected Inventory Item is an occurrence that takes place on a certain day and at a certain time, you should select "Event Availability" when recording its availability.

  2. and clicking on the calendar icon "" in the "Actions" column and from the desired inventory line.

    Note:
    If availabilities have already been recorded for this inventory item, you can review, edit, add and delete them in the availabilities overview table. Otherwise, the table will be empty and Mercury will display the message "No availabilities found".
  4. Click on the "Add event availability" button.
