Major changes in 2.9 beta 2:

·Added E-mail confirmation feature (see separate section for details)  

Major changes in 2.9 beta 3:

·Added zip code / postal code lookup function to New Reservation, Customer Details, and Vendor Details dialogs (see separate section for details).  
 
·Include customer information to reservation record "Print" function from Reservation Details dialog.  

Major changes in 2.9 beta 7:

·Added an option to "Show # Available instead of # Occupied" in the Occupancy report, so it can be used as an Availability report.  
 
·Added a "Qty" field in New Reservation -- after optionally selecting a site type and other preferences, enter a Qty and click Add Selection(s) to automatically pick the requested number of sites and add them as synchronized reservations. Note: This option must be enabled through Maintenance / Program Options / Reservations before the Qty field will be available.  
 
·Completely overhauled the way linked reservations are handled, to allow combined billing for non-synchronized reservations, easy creation of linked non-synchronized reservations (with or without combined billing), multi-level linking, and more (see separate section for details).  
 
·Added Reservation "Schedules" support for intra-day reservation schedules. These can be set up for any type of periods within a day, such as AM / PM (2 periods/day), hourly, 15-minute periods, or whatever is needed (see separate section for details).  

Changes in 2.9 beta 9:

·Allow specifying how multiple added sites are linked when the new "Qty" field is entered in New Reservations (as described above), using a prefix of '=', '#', or '>'. For instance, enter "#5" to automatically select 5 sites and link them together as non-synchronized. (The default is to make them synchronized if no prefix is used.)  
 
Changes in 2.9 beta 10:

·Allow linking Unassigned reservations to each other (and adding synchronized, etc.)  
 
·Allow creating multiple unassigned reservations at once, using the Qty field as in beta 9 above (enter a Qty and click "Done" without adding sites).  
 
Changes in 2.9 beta 11:

·Added an option to show # of sites (or percentage) available on the Rack, for each day/period or for each site type. They can be shown as an extra row under each date, or as pop-up tips when you put the mouse over the date and/or site type. This is disabled by default (because it can be slow for very large parks). To enable these options, click the Options button on the Rack tab view. Note that the # available each day will be according to which site type or class is being shown on the Rack (e.g. if you select Cabins from the site types list, it will only show how many cabins are available each day).  

Changes in 2.9 beta 14:

·Added "Availability", "Arrivals", and "Departures" statistics reports (Reports menu).  
 
·Added "Tip of the Day" messages when the program starts, and functions under Help to enable/disable tips or show tips now.  
 
·Skip the warning prompt about adding transactions to a reservation that's not the linked master -- always add to the linked master by default. The warning prompt can be re-enabled through Program Options. Also, transactions for meter readings and monthly billing will only be allowed on the linked master unless this prompt is enabled.  
 
·Added "Receipts by Category" Quick-Report on the Transactions tab. This will report payment transactions like Receipts by Payment Method, but will interpolate the proper Category from the charges the payment were applied to and group amounts accordingly. For deposits entered before any charges, an "Uncategorized" group is used. Options allow reporting deposits at the time of posting (using this uncategorized group), and/or reporting as of the date the deposit was applied (when it will know the actual category).  
 
·Keep the Rack and Map views in sync (when the From or To date is changed on one, change it on the other also). This can be disabled through Program Options / Reservations.
