This update gives you tighter control over your services, service groups and package pricing. What you set on the Services and Service Groups pages now carries through to every booking screen automatically.
Deactivating a service group clears it from booking
Deactivate a service group and its services are withdrawn from new bookings for you, so your booking screens only ever offer what you are currently selling. Anyone still holding prepaid credit in that group keeps access to it, so no prepaid balance is ever stranded.
Deactivating a service withdraws it straight away
The same applies to individual services. Switch one off and it is withdrawn from new bookings immediately. Anything already booked keeps its service and still displays correctly when you open it, so your history is preserved exactly as it stands.
Package pricing always favours the best rate paid for
Where prepaid credit sits across more than one tier of a service group, the charge is now always taken from the cheapest tier with credit remaining, matching the rate quoted at the time of booking. The best rate someone has paid for is the rate they get, every time.
One consistent price for everyone who can book
Services inside a pricing group are now kept visible to everyone who can book them, so a rate reads the same whoever is looking at it. Your existing settings are unchanged, and the service edit page now carries a short note explaining that visibility for a grouped service is managed through its group.
A confirmation step when deactivating a group in use
Deactivating a service group that still contains services now tells you how many are affected and asks you to confirm, so nothing goes quiet without you knowing. The services themselves stay active.
Cleaner menus for Payment Packages accounts
If your account uses Payment Packages, package pricing and service group credit now stay cleanly separate. The service group menus are also tidied away unless you have service group data to reach, keeping your menus focused on the features you actually use.
