Schedule by day
This type of Planner list lets you manage a schedule for any objects. There's a list of objects on the left-hand side of the schedule, with a calendar grid on the right-hand side:
By selecting the desired date range to the right of a specific object, you can create a task that will be displayed as a "busy" block for the specified dates. When you do this, you can create a visual system for reserving tasks for each object, and at the same time build a workload calendar.

With "Schedule by day" lists, you can use any "Date" field; you're not limited to just the standard task start and end dates. This widens the scope of how these lists can be used.
Additional information Dragging objects to and from this kind of list is not currently supported. Within a schedule, blocks can be moved between different rows/objects. Only users with paid Planfix accounts can use Schedule by day Planner lists.
