Hiring equipment out

If your group also uses Hall Manager, equipment here can be marked as available to hire and it appears on your hall's public hire page alongside the hall and the minibus — no re-entering it in two places, and one place that knows where everything is.

Availability accounts for what's already committed: a loan you recorded here, or kit promised to a camp in Camp Planner, both count against what a hirer can ask for. Kit recorded as damaged, or with an expired PAT test, is held back from hire automatically rather than being offered and refused later.
