Facility Rental Settings in Tandem

Tandem provides a number of configuration options to help you manage facility rentals in a way that fits your organization’s needs. These settings allow you to control visibility, permissions, billing, and customization of the rental process.


General Rental Settings

  • Make available to the public – Uncheck to keep rentals hidden from the public.

  • Require group – Renters must select their rental group before submitting a request.

  • Processing fee when no group is selected – Enter a dollar amount (e.g., 20.00) or leave blank.

  • Allow non-admins to override conflicts – Check to allow rentals to be submitted even if they conflict with other events.

  • Show conflicts with events awaiting approval – Uncheck to hide conflicts with events still pending approval.

  • Hide group conflicts – Prevents conflict errors when the same group is double-booked.

  • Hide facility conflicts – Prevents conflict errors when the same facility is double-booked.

  • Allow requestors to cancel approved rentals – Lets users cancel their own rentals after approval.

  • Allow requestors to request changes to approved rentals – Lets users submit change requests for their approved rentals.

  • Default to private – Rentals are marked private by default. Only private viewers and the renter can see them.


Invoice and Policy Settings

  • Terms and conditions – Enter any text that renters must accept before accessing the rental form.

  • Second Line Text – Add an additional line of text to invoices.

  • Invoice Due Date – Number of days renters have to submit payment.

  • Invoice Contact Email – The organization’s main contact email for rentals.

  • Invoice Contact Phone – The organization’s main contact phone number for rentals.

  • Always invoice the district

    • Unchecked: The school associated with the facility will appear as the billing entity (school name, address, and phone number on the invoice).

    • Checked: The main organization will appear as the billing entity instead.


Settings Available on Request

Some settings can only be enabled or disabled by contacting Tandem Support:

  • Disable the entire Facility Rental module.

  • Enable setup & breakdown times on rentals.

  • Make facility rentals admin-only (useful if you collect rental information elsewhere and only want to enter them into Tandem manually).

  • Accept online payments through Stripe.

If your facility rental needs go beyond these options, contact us for assistance.
