Zeitbezogene Einstellungen ist ein anderer wichtiger Absatz wo Sie bestimmen wann und wie lange die Ressource gebucht werden kann. Mietdauer AUF SEITE ZEIGEN kann geändert sein wenn die Dauer ist entweder festgesetzt oder hängt von der Dienstleistung ab die von Kunden aus der Liste gewählt werden kann (z.B. verchiedene Sorte von Massage, jede mit eigene Dauer). Sehen Sie diese FAQ Frage für detalierte Beschreibung von diesem wichtigen Absatz. Wenn Sie sehr einfache Preise haben (pro Stunde oder pro Tag), können sie die in Einheitpreis eingeben AUF SEITE ZEIGEN. Sonnst, warten Sie bis Schritt 7 um die Preisregeln zu feststellen.

Klicken Sie hier um zu sehen wie Ihre Planyosite von Ihre Kunde erfarhen wird. Achtung! Wenn Sie als Admin eingeloggt sind, Buchungen funktionieren nicht genauso wie für den Kunden weil die Admins müssen nicht alle Felder ausfüllen, müssen die Emailadresse nicht bestätigen etc. Loggen Sie sich zuerst aus oder anderen Browser benutzen und dann können Sie auf Buchungen als Kunde ausprobieren.

Hier können Sie definieren einmalige oder regelmessige Periode wann die Ressource nicht gebucht von Kunden werden kann. Hier sollen Sie eingeben alle Tage wann Ihre Dienstleistung nicht verfügbar ist (wegen Feiertage etc.) und Periode ausserhalb der Saison. Für Buchungen für weniger als 1 Tag können Sie auch Mittagspause oder irregulären Werkplan definieren. Wenn es schon Buchungen für diese Periode gibt, wird Planyo alle solche Buchungen ablisten und als Konflikt markieren. Es gibt auch eine Möglichkeit in der Verfügbarkeit Plan sehr schnell verfügbarkeit für jede Zeiteinheit (Viertelstunde, Stunde, Tag) checken und änder. Das wirkt genauso wie einmalige Sperrungen, ist aber schneller hinzuzufügen.

Standardfelder (von Planyo automatisch hinzugefügt) sind in Schwarz und Ihre zusätzliche Felder sind in Grün. Sie können für jede Ressource diese Einstellungseite benutzen, oder Sie könner das allgemeine Formular benutzen. So werden alle Änderungen gleichzeitich für mehrere Ressourcen benutzt.

10 ADDITIONAL: Mit meiner Site integrieren NEUEN KALENDER HINZUFüGEN

Einbindung beginnt mit der Wahl zwichen zwei Integrationmethoden. Simple sendet Ihre Kunden zu planyo.ch um Buchung zu machen und ist sehr einfach zu implementieren (einfacher Link oder Codefragment). Advanced bedeutet dass das ganze Buchungssystem sich auf Ihre Website findet. Alle mögliche schritte (Verfügbarkeitsuche, Ressourceauswahl, Buchungsformular, Emailbestätigung oder Zahlung) werden auf Ihre Website gemacht und die Kunden müssen nie planyo.ch besuchen. Advanced-Integration benötigt ein bisschen mehr Aufbau, ist aber auch sehr einfach zu tun. Tatsächlich kommt Planyo mit 6 Plugins für die grösste CMS-Systeme und diese Plugins sind so einfach zu benutzen wie Standard-Integration. Wenn Ihre Website diese CMS-Systeme nicht benutzen, können Sie auch einfache Instruktionen folgen und so Planyo in Ihre Website einbauen. Integration ist als mehrere Schritte organisiert (Sie können immer zurückkehren). Im letzten Schritt können Sie Kodefragmente kopieren für solche Elemente wie Buchungslink, Kalendervorschau oder Suchformular - für beide Integrazionmethoden (Simple und Advanced). Da findet man auch Schablone (Templates) die man benutzen kann um Präsentation von Ressourcen und Suchergebnise zu personalisieren.

11 ADDITIONAL: Abonnement NEUEN KALENDER HINZUFüGEN

Abonnement (in 'mein Konto') ist wo Sie für die Nutzung des Planyosystems bezahlen können. Hier können Sie auch Ihre Konto verbessern bis Planyo PRO (Abo) oder PRO-COMM (Kommission). Die erste 30 Tage sind auf jedem Fall immer kostenlos. Danach bekommen Sie ein Email wenn Ihr Konto ablauft. Die Zahlungen für Planyo funktionieren wie die Guthaben die abgezogen sind wenn eine neue Rechnung erstellt wird (nie bevor den ersten 30 Tagen). Sie sollen kontrolieren dass die Guthaben ürber 0 bleiben, es ist also eine gute Idee frü zu zahlen -- die Guthaben werden auf jedem Fall nur abgezogen werden wenn die neue Rechnung erstellt wird. Die Rechnungen sind auch hier abgelistet, wie auch Buttons für Einkauf von SMS / FAX Packen (nötig wenn Sie SMS/FAX-Benachrichtungen benutzen).
...Sie haben jetzt alle Schritte von Additional Set-up abgeschlossen. Ihre Planyosite ist jezt gut aufgestellt und mit Ihrer Website integriert.

20 ADVANCED: Google Calendar & Docs / iCal feed NEUEN KALENDER HINZUFüGEN

Es gibt zwei möglichkeiten um den Plan zu exportieren. Sie können iCal-Feeds benutzen (hier) -- so bekommen Sie individuelle Internetadresse für jede Ressource oder ganzen Kalender. iCal-Feeds werden von viele Programme benutzt wie Google Calendar, Apple iCal, Outlook etc. Wenn Sie Google Apps oder Google Calendar benutzen ist es wahrscheinlich besser stattdessen Direktanschluss zu Ihrem Google Konto erlauben. So werden neue Buchungen sofort in Ihrem Google Kalender erscheinen (Google aktualisiert iCal-Feeds nur alle 4-6 Stunden). Anderer Vorteil ist dass dabei die Berichte an Ihrem Google Docs Konto gesendet werden können.
Gratulation! Sie haben alle Schritte von Set-Up abgeschlossen und Sie wissen jetzt wie alle Aspekte von Planyo Kalender individualisiert werden können. Wenn irgendwelche Funktionalität Ihnen fehlt, sehen Sie die Hilfe, vor allem API und personalisierte Preise -- damit kann man alle Sorte von Buchungen modellieren und mit dem Rest Ihrer IT Lösung verbinen.

2012/02/01 If the reservation form asks for the number of participants you can also add a special form item which will add one field per participant asking for their first and last name. This way you can make sure each reservation includes all participant names. See Q202 for more info.

2012/01/27 New 21st language for the planyo frontend: Brazilian Portuguese.

2012/01/26 New payment gateway integrated into planyo: wirecard.

2012/01/22 We've added a playground to the API (here) so you can easily test any API function before using it in your code.

2012/01/22 There are now 5 new text tutorials available in Help / Tutorials: setup of prices, setup of availability, setup of email notifications, administration by multiple users, and configuration of availability search with a focus on advanced integration.

2012/01/12 We've added a quick links slideout box which you'll find on the right-hand side of each admin page. The quick links serve as a customizable menu where the main administrator can add frequently used links (e.g. to specific reports) for all the site admins and moderators. It can also be used by each individual admin or moderator to add their personal favorites.

2012/01/06 We've added a new interesting rule to the pricing manager, called 'Daily pricing'. This new rule lets you set pricing for every individual day or week of the year on a calendar. This is especially useful if you change last-minute pricing on daily basis.

2012/01/04 New great usability enhancement: clever search. This is the search box visible on every page of planyo. It lets you search for a number of things, such as reservation id, customer name or email address, resource name, reservations starting in specific date ranges, availability for given day or month etc. You can for example enter Friday, 2012-03-01, av January or last December into the search box. Using this search box also searches in planyo documentation. Type Help into the search box to find out more.

2011/12/22 The backend gets a new menu navigation with more of the functions which can be accessed directly from every page! The resources get their own top-level menu.

2011/12/22 There is now a new template for the search functionality: 'no matching results code'. This template is displayed when there are no results found. You can use it to either display the availability calendar to the customer, or even retry the search with less restrictive criteria or with a wider range of dates or a different search mode (e.g. search for shorter periods within the searched dates).

2011/12/13 You can now add QR (Quick Response) 2D bar-codes to emails, invoices and advanced integration screens generated by Planyo. See the $(2dcode...) tags in Q221 for more details.

2011/12/12 We have a great new way for your customers to see when they can make a reservation. This is an alternative to the search functionality which requires form submission with specific dates, or to a calendar preview which may be complex depending on your specific model. The new mode is called upcoming availability and is available in both simple integration and advanced integration (only with the latest versions of the plugins (v1.9). You can see this in action here. The new mode can be used as a new entry point for your customers for last-minute reservations. You can include any of your custom resource properties as the search criteria (just as for the search mode).

2011/12/09 Custom email notifications can now be previewed/tested for any existing reservation ID, and not only for the last one in the system.

2011/12/03 We've added a new payment gateway to Planyo: MasterCard MiGS

2011/11/24 Two new email notifications have been added: reservation modified by customer and additional products modified by customer. These two notifications are very useful so the administrator knows if any subsequent changes to a reservation have been made by the customer.

2011/11/22 There's now a new "event" mode. What this does is it either fixes the date/time to a specific value chosen by the administrator (for one-time events such as conferences) or gives the customers a limited choice of drop-down values (for events taking place on a few specific dates/times).

2011/11/18 The reservations tab in the admin backend lets you filter the displayed reservations by a specific resource.

2011/10/26 Japanese is Planyo's 20th language!

2011/10/07 You can now define individual access permissions for all moderators and resource admins. As before, permissions which are not customized for individual users will be taken from group permissions (for moderators or resource admins).

2011/10/06 If dependencies between resources are defined, now also availability (defined through vacations) is checked as well.

2011/09/23 A new user role has been added: the site administrator can add agents, optionally with a commission rate for the reservations entered by the agents into the system more...

2011/09/13 We've added a 'reservations in progress' section to the activity overview section in the backoffice. This will list all rentals currently taking place.

2011/09/09 Seasonal settings can depend on the year, this lets you enter modifications according to holidays which start on different days in different years. (the same kind of change is also possible when entering resource vacations or pricing)

2011/09/08 You can easily create voucher ranges (e.g. VOUCH001 ... VOUCH100) to better keep track of voucher usage.

2011/09/08 Resource names and product names can now be translated plus other UI improvements to the translations have been added.

2011/09/07 You can now define the ordering of additional products. Up until now they were always sorted alphabetically.

2011/09/06 You can now optionally allow your customers to use multiple vouchers in a single reservation to combine multiple discounts. The default is still that a single voucher code can be used per reservation.

2011/09/06 Custom colors which can be assigned to each reservation can now have labels so your moderators can quickly see the meaning of each color (see more in Q223)

2011/09/06 Calendar previews now have an additional 'day view' / 'month view' and 'today' link which should make navigation easier and more clear.

2011/09/04 We have changed the UI of the reports, adding a dashboard with a graph which lets you quickly get an overview of the activity in your planyo site.

2011/08/31 Planyo can inform your server using an HTTP POST whenever an event occurs, such as new reservation being entered or reservation being cancelled more...

2011/08/24 Administrator can add custom products (not listed in the product list) with custom price to specific reservations.

2011/08/23 A new calendar preview style modification is possible for accommodations. The new parameter adds a diagonal division line to days where another guest checks-out in the morning or checks-in in the evening. See the morning_icons parameter in Q173 for more info.

2011/08/20 In case you define specific arrival weekdays (for daily resources) or start hours (for hourly resources), the possible arrival times are specially marked on calendar previews, and only these fields are clickable.

2011/08/19 Resources can now have dependencies between them -- if one is reserved, other resource or resources can be also made automatically unavailable for the same time. See Q220 for more info

2011/08/15 If using multiple units with unit names, now also your customers can pick the desired unit(s) at the time of reservation. This option can be chosen in resource settings / unit names.

2011/08/14 Reservation-related emails sent through planyo from customers (simple integration) can now be sent to the main moderator or resource admin instead of the main admin.

2011/08/10 Custom email notifications can be now translated by you to any other languages you work with.

2011/08/05 Resource vacations can be exported and imported in form of CSV files.

2011/08/02 SMSes are now fully customizable, just as email messages. You can also use the same tags to represent reservation data. Both SMS and email notification editing is now easier with a very convenient preview function.

2011/08/02 You can allow your customers to make some modifications to their reservation after the reservation is made. The items which can be modified are only the ones the administrator added to the reservation form as custom items. Standard items such as rental duration or personal data can be only modified by the administrators. This new functionality is only optional and the link can be added as a tag to an email sent to the customers.

2011/08/01 You can now accept reservations from Czech, Estonian and Catalan speakers - the number of supported languages has now grown to 19.

2011/07/20 If using unit names with resources having multiple quantities, the names can now be optionally assigned at the time of reservation: manually by the admins or automatically for reservations entered by your customers.

2011/07/18 Additional products can now be selected by customers after reservation time in advanced integration (see the tag $(additional_products_url) in Q204).

2011/07/07 Because of numerous emails we've received regarding the currency, we now moved it to site settings. You no longer can set different currencies for different resources but there was no interest in this possibility, anyway.

2011/07/06 New permanent discounts for resources such as tickets, places, seats or anything that can be shared between independent customers - such resources are no longer counted as one resource per ticket/place available but are now counted as the number of tickets/places divided by 2. We also introduced further discounts for the number of resources above 50.

2011/06/29 We're proud to announce partnership with Sage Pay, one of UK's leading payment gateways. Click here to sign up for a Sage Pay account

2011/06/22 We're proud to announce partnership with Moneybookers, one of Europe's largest online payments systems. Click here to sign up for a moneybookers account with special partnership advantages. Moneybookers gives you access to over 100 payment options in 200 countries so it's a great idea to add it to the payment gateways used by your planyo site.

2011/06/20 You may now decide on which weekday (or day of the month) the reports are sent to you.

2011/06/16 You can now resend any individual email sent by planyo. This is useful if your customer entered an invalid email address which was then corrected.

2011/06/13 You can now accept payments from customers using more than one payment gateway. It's your customer who makes the choice amongst the gateways you set up.

2011/06/13 Customized translations can now be done also for individual resources. This is very useful if you mix resources of different types in a single site.

2011/06/09 You can now define a new template: reservation completed to customize the content displayed to clients when a new reservation has been entered.

2011/06/07 Administrators can modify the price already at the time of entering a new reservation.

2011/05/30 We've added two more payment gateways you can choose from: Sage Pay and MultiSafepay.

2011/05/18 You can set up planyo to always require a total amount if less than X days are left before rental.

2011/05/18 New time related rules have been added to Pricing Manager.

2011/05/18 iCal feeds can now be optionally filtered by a reservation form item value

2011/05/13 The reports can now list only reservations for which at least (or at most) X percent of the total price was paid.

2011/05/10 Planyo can now integrate with the existing login system of your Drupal, Joomla, Wordpress, Typo3 or modX website (see more in Q214)

2011/05/10 Planyo now has new admin pages to better moderate existing users. You can now add new users, get a list of all users (added by you or ones who made at least one reservation) plus export it in the CSV format, and automatically set user-specific properties such as member ID or birthdate based on a reservation form field. (see more in Q215)

2011/04/27 The reports have been highly improved. New features include a new report type (totals per week, month etc.), new ways to filter out reservations according to status, payments made or any of the custom reservation form items

2011/04/27 We added a special module for yet another CMS system: CMS Made Simple.

2011/04/21 You can now define a global reservation form which can be used with any number of resources. This way, if you have similar resources and use the global form, you will no longer need to make the same changes multiple times!

2011/04/15 Planyo now supports full integration with Google Calendar. Up until now it was only possible to export events into Google Calendar. Now you can also set up importing events from Google. This means that as an alternative to entering a reservation or vacation into planyo to make a period unavailable you can do the same on Google calendar. Such events will be visible in planyo as special vacations.

2011/04/14 We added authorize.net to the list of supported online payment gateways.

2011/04/06 We just finished implementing new UI and engine for sending out notifications.

2010/10/05 New exciting changes to Pricing manager: you can now use it not only to set pricing but also to determine rules when reserving is not possible.

2010/07/31 You can now temporarily hide specific resources if you don't want users to be able to find them in the search or reserve them. This is very useful for production sites which want to test newly added resources before publishing them.

2010/07/31 We've added a powerful tool to set-up pricing: Pricing Manager. It replaces the old pricing settings: Discounts and Seasonal prices. This tool allows you to specify prices/discounts for a wide range of rules (e.g. depending on weekday, on date range, on number of persons etc.). Even complex pricing models can be entered into Planyo using Pricing Manager.

2010/07/31 When your clients add custom notes to their reservations, you will now see an icon next to these reservations in the Reservations tab. The notification emails' title will be also marked to quickly let you know there are custom user notes which you may need to respond to.

2010/07/24 New, permanent 45% discount on SMSes sent by Planyo. The new price is EUR 8 per 100 SMS notifications so it's one more reason to use this feature and have Planyo automatically notify admins or users by text messages (when reservation is made, confirmed, cancelled etc.). This discount was possible by limiting the list of countries for this feature and by better pricing offered by our SMS gateway.

2010/07/20 You can now specify the exact admin pages the resource admins have access to.

2010/07/19 Updates to custom messages: They are now sent with your own FROM field. If you send yourself a test message, it will use data from the last reservation entered. You may also specify multiple BCC fields (comma-separated) for all custom emails.

2010/07/12 You now have full control over the reservation form. You can hide any standard field or set their default value (e.g. country), you can define ordering of all fields (e.g. move your custom fields to the top), add new sections etc.

2010/07/03 We have completely redone the reports. Whether delivered to your Google Docs, by email, or created on request, all is now grouped in a single place. You can request HTML, PDF or CSV reports and you can even edit the template to have full control over the report contents and layout.

2010/06/24 Administrators can now enter reservations also during vacation time. Other than a warning message, such reservation will be marked as conflicted.

2010/06/02 We have added support for integration with Google Calendar and Google Docs. Google Calendar integration works similar to iCal feeds but reservations appear without the standard delay of Goog Calendar. Google Docs integration makes it possible for Planyo to upload reports directly to your Google Docs in form of spreadsheets.

2010/05/21 Planyo now supports OpenID! All users can now log into planyo with an OpenID provider (such as Google, AOL or Yahoo) without the need to have a separate Planyo login / password.

2010/05/21 Romanian is now the 11th language that your clients can use to make a booking with Planyo.

2010/04/27 Advanced integration now allows you to add language choice and availability preview to the reservation form

2010/04/27 All modules (Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress, DreamWeaver, modX, Typo3) have been upgraded to version 1.3. Old modules will still work fine but you will not be able to use the new features.

2010/02/04 You now have a choice of either accepting online payments through PayPal or moneybookers.com. Moneybookers is a very popular payment gateway and besides all popular credit and debit cards it supports a wide range of domestic funding options in over 200 countries.

2010/02/03 We've added image gallery / slideshow to advanced integration (modules). Now when the thumbnail is clicked in resource view, the users can see large images, just like on planyo.com

2010/01/29 Admins can now add custom comments to their clients' accounts. This can be useful if you have clients who often reserve with you and you'd like to add a note about their preferences or any other information useful to you as the administrator.

2010/01/27 Times when resources cannot be reserved (resource vacations) can now be set with a 15-min precision (previously 1h).

2010/01/21 We introduced a new home page layout which we hope will make the navigation easier.

2010/01/19 For hour-based reservations you can now limit the possible start times to a list of times set by you. This can be useful e.g. if you want users to book starting on even hours only.

2009/12/15 Advanced integration has become even more powerful. There is now a new mode that shows a full list of resources of your planyo site, then resource details after choosing a resource.

2009/11/03 Planyo META sites have now been published. With a META site a single administrator can efficiently administer many Planyo sites and users can search across all resources of a META site. A typical use case is a site for tourism in an area (e.g. a skiing resort) with a number of independent vacation home owners taking reservations.

2009/10/26 Would you like to accept online payments but don't wish to pay the credit card processing fees? Now you can have Planyo add the PayPal fees to the amont to be paid by the user if they decide to pay online.

2009/10/22 If you offer different services that take a different amount of time (e.g. a beauty salon) you can now have the users choose start time and service type. The system will automatically reserve the required amount of time for selected service type (e.g. 30min or 1h depending on service requested).

2009/10/05 We have an affiliate program with a 15% affiate commission paid not on a one-time basis but for the whole duration of a Planyo site created as a result of your referral.

2009/10/03 The first version of our API (Web Services) is now available to all Planyo users.

2009/08/26 If you have a large number of low-priced resources (e.g. bikes, bus seats, place in a language course) you should check out our Planyo PRO-COMM - commission-based pricing model.

2009/07/01 You may now specify an external script (hosted on your server) that will determine both reservation price and whether booking is possible for given period. This makes it easy for Planyo to match every imaginable pricing and scheduling model.

2009/04/24 If you don't have a website, why not use Planyo's automatically created site as your visit card? Now your Planyo site can be accessed through an easy URL, such as http://www.planyo.com/booking/your-site-name

2009/04/15 You can now assign custom colors to reservations. The colors don't have any preassigned meaning, you may use them if you wish to group your bookings, e.g. bookings from friends can be marked green and those with special requirements red, etc.

2009/04/11 You can now integrate a slightly modified version of the calendar where it's up to you to specify the width of the calendar, so you're no longer limited to a very wide calendar preview.

2009/04/10 New pricing model (for some uses only, e.g. hotels, holiday apartments, yachts). In this model you pay no monthly subscription fee but there's a 3% commission on all online reservations. The reservations entered by you are free of charge.

2009/02/11 Detailed reports are now available, either sent to the admin daily/weekly/monthly or at any time by going to the reports tab of the admin panel. You can also download them in Excel-importable format (CSV).

2009/02/01 Personalized email messages can be now specified in site or resource settings. Now you can send separate emails (also with attachments) when a new reservation is entered, when a reservation is confirmed, or at any time before or after rental (e.g. a reminder 2 weeks before).

2008/10/30 You can now define min. time between two consecutive rentals (for rentals shorter than a day). This is useful if the resource you're renting requires maintenance (cleaning, refueling etc.) between rentals.

2008/10/29 Now you can define not only start and end weekdays (in seasonal settings), but you can also specify the allowed start hours for rentals that last less than a day. This is useful if you accept fixed-duration reservations for specific times only.

2008/10/28 When max. allowed rental time is more than one day and min. rental time is less than a day, users can now specify the exact start and end time of rentals on different days. Until now rental could have lasted either whole days or parts of a day.

2008/10/28 When rental time is fixed (e.g. events that always last an hour or two), users are no longer required to enter start and end times but only the start time.

2008/10/24 Planyo comes in new flavors. Special planyo sites with different domain names, texts and options matching the business type are available. At this time there are special sites for yacht rentals, hotels, holiday apartments and driver's ad schools. More to come soon!
