New Features and Updates
Flag Bookings with Text and Colour
Each booking has a Flag text and a Flag colour. These can be used to quickly draw attention to bookings with a special status.
The text and colour can be entered on the edit booking pop-up window.
We have now added a flag selector which can be pre-populated with your own text and colour combinations to make setting the Flag an easy one step process.
Create your own preset flag options at SETTINGS -> ACCOUNT -> PREFERENCES. Add one option per line and an optional colour code after a comma.The colour code is the same 6 character HTML code the colour selector creates for any colour (without the #). A google for "HTML COLOR CODE" will return lots of colour code examples.

Diary Function
We have added a diary function to the calendar view within the control panel.
To add a diary entry click on any day/date displayed on the property name line, for example "Wed 10". A text area will pop up and your notes will be saved to that property and date. An icon will appear with the date to indicate there is a diary entry and you can view it by hovering the mouse over the date. Clicking will allow you to edit the text, to remove it completely simply delete the text and save.

getBookings API
For the developers and hobby programmers out there we now have a public API to download your bookings. Booking and the related invoice information is available in XML format. XML is a standard data format which can be opened by MS excel and many other programs. The XML fields are self explanatory.
The URL is https://www.beds24.com/api/getbookings.xml
You can manually enter your username, password and optional date fields and save the resulting XML file to your computer.
It is also possible to automate the process by using a program to post the fields and parse the result.
