For admins: Notifications to help you better prioritize your daily tasks

Notifications are your alerts in Optix that deliver vital updates on everything that matters, making you more efficient and more informed. From overdue invoices to issues reported, Notifications will show you everything you need to know at a glance.

This includes group notifications, which tidily bundle similar alerts – think “25 invoices paid at the end of the month.”. Plus, with the new ‘Turn off notifications like this’ function, you’re in control of your alerts. 

This highly requested feature allows you to focus on what’s truly important in your daily operations. Read more about Notifications, available to all Optix clients, in this blog.

For admins: Create, edit, or delete a booking in the past

Have you ever had a user book a meeting room that went longer than they planned? No worries!

You can now edit a past booking to accurately reflect extended stays, ensuring they get charged the right amount or the right allowance is subtracted from their account And if a meeting wrapped up early, that’s covered too. You can edit or delete an existing booking that is in the past or even create a new booking in the past via the “Schedule” tab.

Your admin capabilities just got a whole lot more dynamic, adapting to your members’ real-world scheduling needs. 

Check out this FAQ to learn how to update or delete bookings that have ended.
