The wrong size gets caught at booking.

Rentals and tours can now check a rider's height against the bike they picked, not just collect it. And the job importer brings your old system's history across properly: attached to the right customer, counted on their record.

New

Rider height checked against the bike, not just recorded

You've always been able to collect a rider's height and set a height range per size, but nothing compared the two, so a 160cm rider could book an extra-large and nobody would know until they turned up. A height outside the range now shows a warning naming the size that does fit, right under that size instead of in a separate block. A new setting turns that warning into a stop, so the booking can't continue until the size or the height changes. It's off by default, and only appears if you're collecting heights in the first place.

Improved

Bring your job history across, and see it on the customer

The job importer now writes completed jobs through reliably, and can attach an old job to the right customer by name alone, for the shops whose previous system never recorded an email or a phone number. Customer records also update their booking counts and last-visit dates once an import lands, so history you've just brought in shows up on that customer's page rather than reading as a first visit.

Under the hood

  • Link any two jobs, not just the ones we guessed

    The job-linking tab used to suggest only jobs sharing a phone or email within two weeks of each other. You can now search by job number or customer name and link two yourself, for the pairs the guesswork never catches.
