Discount codes for partner websites
If you have a partner (Hotel,Shop...) who adds a booking link on his website it is a wonderfull idea, but to have an overview it would be wonderfull if when te link gets klicked a discount code for this partner will be automaticaly inserted in the discount panel on the online booking wizzard so I can see how often clients from this partner have booked my bikes without they have to insert and remember the code.
1 voteyes, agree. Next logical step.
This is also dependant on having multiple pricing profiles for products.
Meanwhile – we do tag the ‘origin’ or ‘referer’ of all online bookings:

Allow for a photo for each bike to viewed within BRM
We have a fleet of 160+ used bicycles that are rented to students and we'd like to be able to attach a photo of each individual bike within BRM.
1 voteinteresting.
Can I ask why the students need to see the the actual bike image? Rather than an indicative image? -
search
Allow search function to be less dependent on date range. Search should function simply based on general terms (customer name, reservation ID, etc...) without having to add too many specifics. Search should be quick and simple.
1 voteHi Jeremy,
many thanks for your suggestion.
It is a delicate balance, and each search performs differently based on what it is doing. It shows if it uses the date or not with the highlighter. The idea is to do just what you say, quick and simple searches. For example 24hr mode doesn’t require dates, it just looks for ‘stuff happening’ today.
However searching by name is different. Some of our clients have been with us for many years, so we can’t search everything coz that would be slow. For that reason most people set dates to ‘this year’ and only adjust if they are doing something special. Thats the trade off between, ease, speed and power.
Does that make sense? -
auto import cloud based GPS data from a few mfrs. of GPS location chips.
The GPS chip could be dropped into the saddle tube. There are dozens of mfrs. of these chips designed to locate "lost" property. Programmers should be able to have their cloud dump data into your cloud so that the location of the bike at any given moment could be known. A rental shop could go to the police with a BRM printout showing the bike has been at a specific address for X days and is your property. A hard copy printout of the info would be a far more effective tool than looking at a screen from some phone…
