With this feature you can set:  1. no limit! 2. a limit based on how many people you want to book that package - To do this: Do not allow people to register as invitation groups 3. a limit based on how many rooms you have reserved - To do this: Be sure to allow people to register as invitation groups (see below) - You can set their Room number from Manage People or Manage Payments ![mceclip2.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/mceclip2-Jul-11-2022-09-53-10-65-PM.png?width=505&height=104&name=mceclip2-Jul-11-2022-09-53-10-65-PM.png) On all of your packages, you can now specify the max number of bookings this package can take. In effect, you can manage your hotel inventory.  **NOTE: Also handy if you need to keep your group size low because of Covid-safe restrictions.**   ❗❗❗ **ENCOURAGE BOOKINGS - travelers will know that spots are running out** ![mceclip5.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/mceclip5-4.png?width=519&height=89&name=mceclip5-4.png) With the building of max bookings/inventory, we now let your travelers know when spots are running out. We are here to help you encourage and inspire your travelers!   ✒️✒️✒️ **REQUIRED GROUP SIZE - specify the required number of people per booking** Need to specify how many people are required to book per package? Have a couple package or differently priced packages made for families or teams? This feature is for you. It requires your travelers to book in the group size you need. Learn more about it in our [help doc about packages](https://support.youli.io/360001960716-how-to-understand-and-set-up-your-pricing-packages?hsLang=en).  ![mceclip3.png](https://support.youli.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/mceclip3-Jul-11-2022-09-53-08-46-PM.png?width=455&height=226&name=mceclip3-Jul-11-2022-09-53-08-46-PM.png)   **🧑‍🤝‍🧑👪🧑‍🤝‍🧑 ALLOW TRAVELERS TO REGISTER IN INVITATION GROUPS - enable group bookings** We have revamped invitation groups (used to be called extra registrations on the trip page).

We used to call these "Estimated Price" and "Finalized Price". If you are not familiar with [BROCHURE MODE,](https://support.youli.io/4402082365455-checklist-create-a-trip-page-in-brochure-mode-?hsLang=en) it allows you to collect expressions of interest on your Trip Page. It's free forever and available on all our subscriptions. [BOOKINGS MODE](https://support.youli.io/4401889652367-checklist-create-a-trip-page-in-bookings-mode-?hsLang=en) allows you to take payments, just like the old "Finalized Price". Learn more about the difference between [brochure mode and bookings mode in our dedicated help doc](https://support.youli.io/360001930395-trip-pricing-mode-brochure-vs-bookings-?hsLang=en).      **Want more packages?
