2024 / Week 29
It's July. People are on holiday. Nothing much is happening. But not here! I did a lot of work this week.
Released Updates
- Suppliers Added the ability to have a supplier on all products in trips
- Payment log Now it's possible to see the payment log for each payment in orders.
- Public order flow Changed the payment page in the public booking process a bit for easier use
- Bug fixes All the usual weekly bug fixes
Thoughts
By adding suppliers to the products in trips, it's now possible to see which supplier is responsible for each product. This is useful when working with multiple suppliers, and all reporting will take this into account. In the future it will be possible to use the product suppliers to run automations, send emails and reports to each product supplier at will. All current workspaces will have a default supplier, but it's possible to change this on each product.
The payment log is a new feature that shows all the payment attempts for each payment in an order. This is useful when working with payments, and it's possible to see if a payment was successful, failed, or if it was refunded. It will show all communication with the external payment providers that are connected to Itsy.
By changing the payment page in the public booking process, the user will be sent to the payment page in a new window (which takes focus) and the underlying page will be redirected to the order payment page, example here.
All in all, this week was very productive. I am looking forward to the next week. There are some exciting changes to the public booking process coming up and how trips will behave in the process. Stay tuned!
