Editing a rental

Native Rent User Guide 1.2 (2026-10-23). Supersedes the published guide.

Use the quick action Edit / Cancel Rental (Edit_Cancel_Rental) on a rental. It runs NR_Edit_Rental_Transaction (v17 live).

This is the Transaction Edit path: you can edit key dates and details on rentals in supported stages. When dates change, the flow recalculates fees and updates related lines so staff avoid manual workarounds for real-world rental adjustments. Source: decision-log.md; customer release email 1.89.

What you can edit

• Reserved or Confirmed: all edit types.
• Checked Out: end date only.
• Other statuses: Edit Not Allowed.

Changing dates

• Adjust Rental Dates shows the current dates. Cancel leaves without saving.
• The date check runs when you click Next.
• Rentable and add-on lines that are not Completed or Cancelled are repriced. Lines keep their status.
• Fees keep their amounts. One Tax line, named like Tax (11%), replaces the old one.
• An end-date-only edit keeps each line's original start.
• Alternate rates use the rate's own type for quantity (see chapter 4).
