The trash: restore what you deleted

Deleted something by mistake? On every plan, most of what you delete in Casitana goes to the trash first, and stays there for 30 days before it is deleted for good.

What goes to the trash

  1. Step 1

    What you delete goes there first

    When you delete a booking, a guest or contact, a task or care item, a transaction, a document, a template or a contract made with the contract wizard, it goes to the trash for 30 days, with its files.

  2. Step 2

    Open the trash

    Open Settings, then Privacy & Data, and click Trash to see what is there, who deleted it, and when it will be deleted for good.

  3. Step 3

    Only you see it

    Only the account holder sees the trash. Staff can put things in it when they delete, but never restore anything or empty it: see Staff delete to the trash.

Restore it, or delete it for good

  1. Step 4

    Restore an item

    Click Restore to put an item back where it was, with its files and links. If something has changed since (another booking now has the same dates, for example), Casitana says why it cannot be restored and leaves the item in the trash.

  2. Step 5

    Delete for good

    Delete permanently removes one item and its files at once. Tick This is an erasure request (GDPR) when a guest has asked to be forgotten. Empty trash does the same for everything.

  3. Step 6

    After 30 days

    After 30 days, Casitana deletes items for good on its own. Your data download includes what is in the trash, and deleting your account empties it.

Properties are the exception

  1. Step 7

    A deleted property cannot be restored

    A property does not go to the trash. Deleting it is permanent, so Casitana asks you to type the property’s name before it deletes anything, and anything of that property already in the trash goes with it. How to delete a property: Delete a property.

In the appApp

  1. Step 1

    Open the trash in the app

    In the Casitana app, open More and tap Trash. Each item shows who deleted it and when it will be deleted for good. Tap Restore to put it back where it was.

  2. Step 2

    Deleting in the app

    What you delete in the app goes to the same trash, and the app says so: “Restore it from More › Trash within 30 days.” Deleting an item for good, and emptying the trash, are done on the website.
