    ...everybody, time to talk updates! This week, we've got a tidy little set of updates (about 16) to go through, all of which are enhancements or bug fixes. No new features to talk about, but the little stuff is important too! 💪

    ...channels and more channel related feature throughout the rest of the year and into 2019.

    As vacation rental owners ourselves we're salivating over the possiblities and can't wait to get all of this stuff done! The current roadmap starts with booking.com content push, then into VRBO/HomeAway and Airbnb content push (both via channel bridge for everyone and direct integrations for 5+ property users). A...

    ...things are working, but one issue is driving my client crazy. When I send out canned messages from OwnerRez, it shows on Airbnb as coming from the owner.  Welcome message, directions, etc., all this stuff shows as coming from the owner of the Airbnb account, which is my client.  Also, if I reply to someone using the CRM, it also shows as coming from her.  She hates this, she wants messages from me to...

    Cool stuff.
    It would be great if you had a special way to deal with the ridiculous VRBO/HA service fee as it would always be removed from what we actually get out of the down payment.
    Thanks for the hard work you guys do.

    We are changing it to use the name.  The feedback on that has been overwhelming and the use case is pretty obvious.  The OwnerRez engineer working on lock stuff is already actively working on putting that in place.

    ...the weeds on that part first.

    Before Inbox cleanup, we've had to clean up messaging features (like Autoresponder) and work our way through some of the side features so that we can get to the main stuff.  That, too, has already been underway for a while.

    Our PM system has a large V2 about to drop that we've been working on for 2 years which changes a number of significant things around commissio...

    ...- it's the same as every other lock integration.

    Here's a quick pic of us testing it:

    (Ignore the purple buttons. That's extra stuff that only OR staff can see.)

    We created two different locks and associated them with the same property and set "random" as the code generation setting.  We created a booking, and, as you can see,...

    ...pensing.  In the future, we will sync these fees and deposits with QuickBooks as well.  If you use Converge or some of the others, you probably won't get that for a while if ever.

    Just some other stuff to keep in mind.  The processing fee % isn't everything.

    @Valerie - I think it's best to post requests for feature changes in the other forum, makes it easier for the OR team to not overlook it.

    I agree with your comments, there is a lot of value in keeping short term rental stuff all in one place.

    Thanks. I was meaning that the only issue with direct integration is the calendar looking kind of stuff. All the other Communications and functionality work on all the OTAs?

    ...my properties is a houseboat with special requirements, like flip a switch on when you shower to drain water from boat or its a step 50 stair climb that Guests must be able to walk. I emphasize this stuff several times in listing and in house rules but so many guests argue they never saw anything about it any of it. With the rules on the agreement they sign, I feel it would give more support for me on...

    ...their real email address, populate it in OwnerRez, and then your scheduled emails will work for those bookings as well.

    We've got some enhancements for walled gardens planned for later this year -- stuff like parsing the booking and payment notifications so we can populate charges and payments, a guest "checkout" that would accept their email address and have them sign your renter agreement, etc. As...

    I think the minimum price setting takes care of them going too low, but I've never used it.

    Marinas Edge, have you gotten higher prices with the smart stuff turned on? Or does it always tend to hit your minimum?

    Perfect! I'm never quite sure where to look for stuff. Thank you.

    We include a bunch of extra stuff like UnitNumber in the Channel Bridge export, but that's not currently used anywhere in OwnerRez.

    Right now, the mapping is based off of ListingNumber and you can set that mapping in the property settings of the synced channel.

    ...reaks a window and cancel their credit card.

    Question - have you asked Lynnbrook about interchange plus pricing? I'm wondering if they already have that. They seemed pretty amenable to most of the stuff we've talked to them about. It's possible that they already do that, if specifically asked.

    ...out a difference of $50 per month which more than covers whatever the gateway is monthly.

    When you say invoicing and pre-scheduled, are you talking about outside of VR bookings? For vacation rental stuff, we provide an invoice (quote) for guests and do payment schedules - does that not work for your needs? I guess that's the thing that it comes down to ultimately since it dictates what all processor...

    I do not know where you get 3.5% for square. it is 2.9% for non swiped non keyed (invoiced).

    yes I mean for one off stuff. for example, my AirBnB or VRBO renter who already paid via VRBO or AIRBNB wants to add an extra night to their stay. I do not do that via AirBNB or VRBO, I just invoice them for extra night cost via Square. or sometimes I have VRBO renter who booked via VRBO and paid deposit via...

    Small stuff, and it's going to be fast. Mostly small tweaks, grammar fixes, enhancements. Your request to have a fixed amount for the first payment was included.
