Dwellings are portable habitats including caravans, campervans, motorhomes, RVs and tents. Dwelling Length is a Lookup Table that can be used to determine compatible Areas for set dwelling lengths. Areas in a Category with the Classification of 'Site' can have Dwelling Length assigned to simplify Area Allocation when creating a reservation with a particular dwelling.
Â
