filter for wind speeds (for blacklist date)

The lead variable is for the actual weather, not for the items on the lead. Or are you talking about something else?

Correct. I read your ticket as wanting to set a blackout date if the weather was going to be over xmph then set the blackout date but honestly that's only about 10-14 day lead time so that's probably not great.

I think you're filter would have to be a lead filter and then use the wind speed filter there. But you'd also want to include the items/categories you want to prevent booking

I'm setting the blackout date manually, as we get a huge amount of booking attempts when the wind is to high because when all the operators in the area cancel for wind, the people try to book with us. It's the filter itself that I'm having issues with--I don't want the blackout date to prohibit autobooking my giant Jenga, or Cornhole, or dunk tank, etc.

The easiest way I can think of to do this would be to make a filter for the blackout date that applies it only to inventory with wind alert variables =< 15mph. (Would be even cooler if I could set it to be wind alert variables over the forecasted windspeed, but that's a bigger ask, I know.) That would allow my dunk tank (empty wind alert variable) and lawn games (no alert variables either) to still be autobooked, while inflatables with 10 or 15mph limits are blacked out.

However.....the wind alert variable isn't an option in the inventory filter dropdown.

Why not a lead filter that says "if the wind speed is over xMPH and the rental categories include x,y,z"

I think that's the best workaround option. I've got it set up now with the filter for Rentals Category contains Bounce House OR Slide OR Canopy AND Lead Surface DOES NOT EQUAL Indoor.

Thanks for the suggestion.
