 ====== Maintain units ======
+A unit is a physical bookable object, it should represent something that can be booked as a "holiday".
+For example, an apartment, a caravan, a cottage or a cruiser would be a unit but something that could be booked to accompany the unit, such as a rowing dinghy in the case of a cruiser cannot be booked on it's own, it is not a unit but an extra. See [[holray:extras|Maintain Extras]] for these.
