Hi,

I would propose that in Auto Actions there is feature to detect date of the booking (First Night) or duration of the booking and based on that to Trigger event (beside other things).
I, for ex. would like to send auto respond to all request coming from Channels depending on the period they are booking - summer, winter.

Regards,

Igor

Adding such a functionality is quite complicated. You could use the flag function to mark certain bookings and create Auto Action Emails to triggered by certain flags: https://wiki.beds24.com/index.php?title ... ial_status

This is a fantastic idea... except that there are a few bugs regarding this logic as described in my post here. http://forum.beds24.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=29

I really like the idea of performing other actions based on custom flag settings. But please note that even if you currently try to perform a "Manual" action to update the booking flag this will only happen in the next hour. - So if you have a few "Manual" actions that are dependent on each other's booking flags as triggers you can only run them 1 every few hours which can be very frustrating.

i think that a "Manual" booking Action that is "Sent NOW" should also be performed NOW. not in the next hour.
