BedView Optimization

City Tax Settings (beta)
We have developed a universal way of managing and setting up the city tax. Previously enabled city/local tax models are still working and no changes are required.
1. For City Tax settings check Property Settings / Financial Settings / Tax Settings – City Tax.
2. Also, you can now toggle – add or remove – the city tax in the reservation.
