[TRUST] Additional Column in Payment Excel to Check the Payment Status
We have implemented an exciting update in the Payment Report Excel download for our TRUST accounting module. We have now included an additional column that indicates whether the payment's package has been successfully transferred to TRUST. This enhancement aims to provide greater transparency and clarity regarding the status of payments within the TRUST accounting system. We hope this improvement will streamline your workflow and enhance your overall experience with our platform.
[PMS] Allocation Table UI/UX Improvements
We've upgraded view options that make toggling the view format of the Allocation Table easier. With just a click switch between the booking ID view and guest name view. Each booking will be highlighted with distinctive colors to suit your guest segments. This intuitive feature ensures that you can navigate and organize your bookings more efficiently.
[PMS] Capture Credit Card Tokens On Check In for Stripe and Flywire
In addition to being able to securely tokenize cards via the online booking engine, PMS users can now also do so as part of the check-in process. The underlying tokenization is provided by Stripe or Flywire. Tokenize at check-in and easily charge cards at a later date — from RoomBoss or your payment gateway.
