Rate widget future date calculations. We changed how recurring seasons were calculating end dates when generating dates for the rates widget. It should now be more clear and correct.

...New Features
Our rate system has undergone a number of major changes over the years. In fact, check out the original rates announcement from more than 10 years ago! A week later, we talked about recurring and specific-date seasons for the first time, though they were actually called "rate overrides" at the time. Wow, those posts make me feel old.
Over the following years, we changed that to a list...
We got great feedback on the Gallimaufry post from June, so I figured it should become a recurring series. We do announcement posts for the larger features, but there are so many small ones that can get lost in the chatter if they're not called out and recognized.

First, the big features we've already announced over...

Rate table for 7 night season that overlaps the current month. This is an interesting one that will make your head spin thinking about it! If there was a recurring season that started last month and finished before today, and that season had a 7-night minimum requirement, and that season length was such that there were less than seven nights in the current mont...

Security Deposit Transaction Set to 0 days Before Arrival Should be Visible. If you have a Security Deposit Transaction property rule set to 0 days before arrival, either a hold or recurring saving deposit (RSD) property, the security deposit wasn't showing on guest booking transactions. This has been fixed and Security Deposit Transactions set to 0 days before arrival will display on gu...

At the very least, you could add it as an automated recurring expense for all bookings on that channel (configured via the settings). The VRBO pay per book commission always comes out to exactly the sum of my base rate and my cleaning fee times 5%. So it’s pret...
...ook for a company with a high overall rating and positive reviews from previous clients. It can also be helpful to filter reviews by rating and read through some negative ones to be sure there aren't recurring complaints that may indicate a red flag. Professionalism
A reputable cleaning company should have a professional website, straightforward pricing and service descriptions, and transparent communica...
Thanks for the suggestion!
We do not currently support repeating triggers because it can get very spammy. Consider someone who sets up a "daily" recurring trigger for 30 days before arrival with no criteria! The guest would simply get spammed every day with no way to stop it. 🙀
We have discussed recurring triggers before, but no ETA on that at this time. We want to make sure we do it right with the prop...
@Gabriel - Yep, a video is in the works. It's super simple, though, as you can see from the quick recording above.
@Kismet - With the new system, it'll prioritize specific dates seasons over recurring seasons and shorter seasons over longer seasons -- in our experience that handles 99% of the prioritization needs.
Will that work for you?
@Ann-Tyler - Yep, you configure both the night and the weekend nig...
While there is no way (just yet) to automatically log a recurring monthly expense, you can log an expense to an owner or a property -- not just to a booking. Go to PM > Expenses and there you can add an expense that's assigned to an owner or a property.
