Control Panel Change Log
This page documents changes to the Control Panel

We are working on improving usability and workflows. This involves changes to the location of settings, setting names and menus.


1 Stage 2

Release date: tba

1.1 Renamed Pages and Settings

RATES: "Rates" to "Fixed Prices". We do this because many customers starting with Beds24 confuse what we call rates with channel rate plans. Using the terms "Daily Prices" for dynamic prices and "fixed prices" for prices which have a start and an end date should stop this. 


2 Stage 1

Release date:

2.1 Renamed Pages and Settings

"Details tab of the booking: "API Message"  to "Channel Info"

(SETTINGS) PROPERTIES > BOOKING RULES: "Booking Cancellations by Guest" to "Cancellations by Guest"

(SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > PROPERTY CONTENT "Headline Text" to "Property Headline"

(SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > PROPERTY CONTENT "Property Description Text" to "Property Description"

(SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > PROPERTY CONTENT > ROOM CONTENT "Room Headline Text" to "Room Headline"

(SETTINGS) CHANNEL MANAGER > PROPERTY CONTENT > ROOM CONTENT "Room Description Text" to "Room Description"

(SETTINGS) PROPERTIES >ROOMS > SETUP: "Id Number"  to "Room ID"

RATES: "Rates" to "Fixed Prices". We do this because many customers starting with Beds24 confuse what we call rates with channel rate plans. Using the terms "Daily Prices" for dynamic prices and "fixed prices" for prices which have a start and an end date should stop this. 

2.2 Moved Settings

"VAT Rate" moved from (SETTINGS) PROPERTIES > BOOKING RULES (SETTINGS) PROPERTIES >ROOMS > SETUP
