Feature Enhancements

Released new versions of the Tasks & Users pages with enhanced UIs and a variety of new & improved features.

Compulsory Free Text Product Options

Text Input product options can now be marked as compulsory, useful for collecting required details or preferences for specific products as a booking is made.

To edit product options, simply navigate to the Products & Services via the Product Details page.

[PMS] Additional Details added to Housekeeping Reports

Booking & Guest Segments are now visible on both Housekeeping HQ and Housekeeping Report task lists and report downloads.

The Housekeeping HQ dashboard can be used to view daily housekeeping tasks & quickly update statuses when completed; while the Housekeeping Report generates a comprehensive report of housekeeping tasks for a specified period.

This week saw the release of a range of improvements across the RoomBoss ecosystem, including UX enhancements for the Rate Calendars and Rate Periods pages, and a number of quality-of-life updates to the RB Freshsales CRM integration.

Selangor, Malaysia has been introduced as the latest available location for vendors, joining a variety of other regional options including Borneo; Phuket, Thailand; Bali, Indonesia, and more.

Other recent locations added include Makkari (Hokkaido, Japan) and Togari Onsen (Nagano, Japan).

You are now able to restrict guest names to a specific format when receiving bookings from non-accommodation booking engines.

Options include Latin Only, Katakana Only, Hiragana Only, or unrestricted, giving you flexible, fine-grained control over how you receive guest details—especially when used in conjunction with the Additional First Name and Last Name guest fields.

Also applicable to bookings made by Travel Agents using the new in-account UI, name formats can be set on a vendor-by-vendor basis and are configurable from the Guest Fields page.

As we leap into 2024, the entire RoomBoss team would like to extend our warmest wishes to all of our valued partners and clients — from near and far.

We’re excited to continue this voyage with you, and look forward to continuing to provide software & solutions to assist and empower you in all of your endeavours.

Wishing you an exciting and prosperous new year — and as always — thank you for using RoomBoss!

Available presets include filtering by Company-Owned/Third-Party vendors, as well as by Accommodation/Non-Accommodation services, and can be found on pages such as Booking Statistics II, Booking Creation & Cancellation, Search Bookings, and more.
