Accessible via the Search Bookings page, Front Desk HQ, and directly using a related booking ID, the new Itinerary page visualises packages in a timeline format, providing a breakdown of accommodation and activities booked each day, from arrival to departure.

View and edit additional details such as arrival and departure information—including flight numbers, times, and airport transfer methods—and quickly access overviews of each packaged item, all from one screen.

Following updated requirements surrounding Japanese Consumption Tax introduced in Q4 2023, it is now possible for Japan-based users to setup RoomBoss to issue receipts which meet the specifications of the new Qualified Invoice System.

New configuration options are available now on the new Japan Qualified Tax Invoice Settings page, and via RB’s Price Component Profile.

Once setup, you are able to issue receipts from within RoomBoss which show:

• Per Item Tax Breakdown
• Tax Summary
• Qualified Invoice Issuer Registration Number

Visit our Help Site for more information on the Japan Qualified Invoice System and how to configure and issue Qualified Tax Invoices.

Provide seamless, end-to-end guest pre-arrival & check-in experiences with the Roomboss x Canary integration.

A flexible tool for those using custom CSS, these classes can be leveraged to apply visual changes to headers, categories, services and more when specific vendors have been selected.

We’re excited to welcome back Abid, Senior Developer from Kashmir, India!

A seasoned developer with a plethora of industry experience, Abid possesses an extensive understanding of both Java and the inner-workings of RoomBoss, following his time helping to build and architect our systems as a former team member.

Following his tenure with the RB team, Abid worked for a prominent multinational, playing a role in developing widely-used fintech infrastructure and further demonstrating his expertise in advancing technology solutions.
This expertise, alongside his peerless work-ethic, zen-like focus, and effortlessly friendly disposition make his recent return especially welcome.

While calm and collected in the workplace, Abid likes to channel his excess energy through Rocky-like gym montages and extreme snowboarding sessions. When he’s not shredding the mountain, he can often be found tearing up the tarmac on his favourite motorbike, and relishing everything the outdoors has to offer.

The whole team feels extremely lucky to have Abid back, and his return is a testament to the unique professional environment we foster. As both our team and ambitions continue to grow, we look forward to embarking on this journey together!
