General Help and Questions » Finding a past topic

No, but there should be. I could've sworn there was a page to see your posts but I can't find one -- noting it down as a todo :-)

General Help and Questions » What does this message in the Booking Detail report mean?

That's happening because those are VRBO platform bookings with balance due. We skip reminders on calendar imported bookings by default because you don't want a guest getting an email from OwnerRez wh…

General Help and Questions » Trigger for Check In email including check in date/time, do's/don'ts

Awesome! Yep, on the logged in site on your booking area it only searches the bookings and stuff in your account. To search support articles, forums, and blog posts, use the search box in the suppo…

General Help and Questions » Setting check in and out times, and same day checks in on calendar bookings?

Yep, sorry for the scavenger hunt! Unfortunately "check" "in" "out" are all common words and don't work so well in a search engine :-/ All of the rules about the property are in the Rules section. T…

General Help and Questions » Min Nights in Season vs. Rate Calendar vs. Spot Rates List

The way it works, spot rates override seasons and the min gap nights override overrides everything else. A spot rate can either have a blank min nights or have a min nights set. If you have a blank …

General Help and Questions » Setting up Stripe Account

What if you put in the property's address and phone number? They are likely validating for some sort of US nexus on the address check.

Feature Requests » Another Rate Calendar nice-to-have ;-)

That's an interesting idea. How do VRBO show it? That calendar already gets really busy, perhaps with an optional overlay. You don't really need to worry about that in OwnerRez though -- instead set…

General Help and Questions » e-checks

A bit more about the reasoning here... The hold-up on e-checks is primarily because they're not a true online payment method like credit card. With a credit card, you charge it and know that it's bee…

General Help and Questions » Is there a report that captures Custom Fields?

None of the reports per-se have the listing site reservation number on them but there is a data export that has it. Go to the Bookings tab and go to List view, then use the Export button in the top-…

Template/Design Share » Organizing templates

We've got two standard suggestions for this: 1) When possible, use a single email template for multiple properties and then use custom fields to change up the parts of the email that are different. …

General Help and Questions » Form Message for {BULEASE}

Yep, that makes sense. We have plans to revamp that entire section and make it much more customizable.

General Help and Questions » Trigger NOT for direct bookings or Airbnb, but all else

There's not a good way to exclude direct bookings with an Everything But type trigger. For that to work you'd create a custom listing source and set that on all of your widgets and inquiries and book…

Feature Requests » Custom Booking Channel option?

Right now there's only one listing site/channel per booking so there's no way to set a combination of VRBO and also EVOLVE -- you have to pick one or the other and key your triggers based on that. W…

General Help and Questions » Form Message for {BULEASE}

Right now there's not a way to customize the message at the top of the lease signature form -- only the step 3 of the quote process. What do you need to customize in this message?

General Help and Questions » Best way to collect taxes that VRBO doesn't collect for owners

Yes, you could do an adjuster on the channel or a listing site specific surcharge and those would be added to the rates. Right now Airbnb is the only channel where channel bridge will factor back ou…

Feature Requests » maintain history of last pushed spot rate / min night

Yep, both the "last pushed" date and the "push all" are things we've got on the list. I really wish the channels would just remove the restrictions and property mins on API's and we could just direc…

General Help and Questions » Channel bridge import - you have to enable channel management to use C/B?

Channel bridge was one of the first parts of the channel management area and is still the only way to do channel management for VRBO if you have less than 5 properties which is their requirement for …
