## Full answer

In Thynk, an inquiry is converted into a booking once it reaches a status that your property has configured as ready for conversion.
Configurable statuses: administrators decide which inquiry statuses allow conversion, so the sales process stays consistent.
Permissions: conversion is available to users whose profile and permission sets allow them to create bookings.
Business rules: because Thynk is built on Salesforce, validation rules and Flows can add your own checks before conversion.
When the inquiry is converted, its details carry over to the new booking, so no information is retyped and the full history stays linked.
