What’s New: Smarter Workflows & More Control
This release introduces several updates designed to make day-to-day operations more intuitive and give teams greater control over their workflows. Improvements include clearer guest checkout messaging, stronger task preservation, easier team assignment, and more flexible notification settings. Here’s a look at what’s new and what your team needs to know.
1. Checkout Messaging Update + Confirmation Flow
A Clearer, More Intuitive Checkout Experience
We’ve updated the guest checkout experience to make each step easier to understand—from receiving the initial checkout link to confirming that checkout is complete.
Clearer Checkout Messaging
Guest-facing checkout and reminder messages have been refreshed with clearer guidance on when to use the checkout link. Guests are prompted to complete checkout only when they’re packed up and ready to leave the property for the final time.
Improved Confirmation Flow
Once a guest opens the checkout link, they’ll see a confirmation step before checkout is finalized. This helps prevent accidental checkouts and makes it clear that confirming will notify the team that they’ve left the property.
What’s Updated
- Refreshed checkout link and reminder messaging
- Added a confirmation step before checkout is completed
- Clear confirmation once checkout is complete and the team has been notified
- Improved overall clarity throughout the guest checkout experience
This update is live for all guest-facing checkout flows, and no action is required from your team.
2. Improved Access Code Handling When Reservations Change Properties
When a reservation is moved to a different property, the early check-in code is now automatically cleared to ensure outdated access information does not carry over to the new property.
What’s Updated
- Clears the existing early check-in code when a reservation is reassigned to another property.
- Prevents outdated access codes from remaining associated with the reservation.
- Ensures access information stays aligned with the newly assigned property.
Expected Behavior
After a reservation is moved to a different property, any previous early check-in code is reset, helping ensure guests receive the correct access information for their new property.
3. Preserve Post-Departure Housekeeping Tasks
A new configuration option helps ensure post-departure housekeeping tasks remain active, even when changes are made to the associated reservation after checkout.
How It Works
When this setting is enabled:
- Post-departure housekeeping tasks are preserved if a reservation is updated or deleted after checkout.
- Property or reservation changes will not unintentionally remove required turnover tasks.
- Housekeeping work remains visible and actionable for operations teams, regardless of changes to the original reservation.
When the setting is disabled, existing behavior applies, and deleting the reservation will also remove its associated housekeeping task.
Expected Behavior
With this setting enabled, post-departure housekeeping tasks remain intact and active after checkout, helping prevent required turnover work from being accidentally removed.
4. Easier Assignee Selection in State Changes
We’ve made it easier to find the right team member when assigning a task during a state change. The “Assign to” list is now automatically sorted alphabetically by first name.
What’s Updated
- Assignees are displayed alphabetically by first name.
- Makes team members faster to find in larger lists.
- Creates a more consistent, easy-to-scan assignment experience.
Expected Behavior
When opening the “Assign to” dropdown during a state change, users will see available assignees listed alphabetically by first name.
5. Linen Invoice Tag Printing Fix
We’ve resolved an issue affecting tag printing within Linen Invoice, improving consistency and reliability for linen operations.
What’s Updated
- Corrected tag rendering and printing behavior.
- Improved consistency when generating Linen Invoice tags.
- Ensures tags print in the expected format.
Expected Behavior
Linen Invoice tags should now print reliably and display the correct information and formatting.
