We're currently beta testing an iPhone application, the first of it's kind! Our new app allows you to check availability, book rooms, lookup guests, and
more. Click here for more
information and to sign up for the beta.
Occupancy Map
- Colors, colors, everywhere! We added custom colors to
the occupancy map for special dates, weekends, wait listed
reservations, online bookings, and more. You can set up custom colors
by going to the Configuration section and selecting Custom Colors.
- Reservations with a credit card authorization can now be displayed
with a unique color.
- We improved the wait list. The wait list will
now pop up if you cancel a reservation for a wait listed date. You can
also open it any time by going to View > Wait List from the menu,
and search / view any wait listed reservations.
- When a reservation is moved to a room with different rates, there
is now an option to keep the rate or recalculate it.
Reservations & Customers
- Last used filters are now remembered, so you don't have to
reselect your filters even time you move between screens.
- We added a Cancellations filter to the Reservation List.
- You can now require a referral source before booking a
reservation. To enable this setting, go to Configuration and click the
link on the right for "Lists, Occupancy Map, Reservations &
Customers".
- Added a blank option to the customer prefix field.
Reports
- You can now compare many of the reports year over year or
for whatever date range you choose. This feature is available
for all revenue, reservation, occupancy, and summary reports.
- Improved the tax reports to show non-taxable & tax-exempt
sales, as well as gross sales.
- Added a code for room extension to the Reservation &
Housekeeping reports, as well as confirmation letter, registration card,
and all other reservation letters.
Rates & Availability
- Packages can now be restricted to max future days (e.g. no more
than 1 year in the future). This option is available in Configuration > Packages.
- The rate seasons & adjustments screen now displays occupancy %
numbers for the entire month, and each day.
Booking Engine
- You can now opt to receive online booking notifications
via text message (SMS). To add your mobile #, go to the
Configuration section, and click the link under Online Reservations for
"Common Settings". Enter your mobile # in the field provided.
- There is now a “email link” button in the Booking Engine Settings
to make it easier for you to send your webmaster your online booking
links.
- We added more colors for the Booking Engine buttons
- about 10 more color options.
Misc
- There is now a “restart services” shortcut in the Start menu for
troubleshooting purposes.
- We added a link to the Intuit Merchant Service website (QBMS
website) from the View menu to make it easier for you access your credit
card batch information and charge data.
- It is now possible to enter data further in the past when creating
a new database. Just select the option when prompted as you are setting
up RezOvation GT.
As always, we welcome your feedback.
Thanks for using RezOvation GT, and we hope you enjoy the new features!
