TLDR; Wheelhouse just embedded a Revenue Assistant in your account…

Today, we’re rolling out ⛳ Flags, a new way to ensure your success on Wheelhouse.

⛳ Flags are a new alerting system layer that automatically identifies listings with:

Flags enable you to:

✅ Catch pacing problems before owners do

✅ Spot misconfigurations in a flash

✅ Turn Flags into smart segments that scale your workflows

🚩 :

Configuration flags appear if you have missed a key configuration (e.g. no Min Price) that will help you succeed.

🚩 :

Best Practice flags ensure you are using our more complex settings (e.g. Historical Anchoring and Far Future Premiums) in a way that will drive performance.

🚩 :

Performance flags give you an easy way to see properties that are performing below expectations at a glance, such as when revenue or occupancy falling behind YOY… or even when a listing is potentially over performing and you might have room to be more aggressive!

Currently, 🚩 Flags are surfaced on your portfolio page.

➡️ To see them, simply add the column “flags” from the Column Dropdown.

Whether you’re managing a handful of listings or thousands, flags give you fast, actionable visibility across your portfolio.

Flags can be used as a filter, to customize the views your team sees & can respond to.

➡️ Open your filters column to see “flags” as part of your Listing Status filters, and then select any flag!

And, because flags are filters, you can easily combine them with any other attributes to create a saved Segment.

➡️ Simply select a flag and a filter to create a dynamic (always up to date) view for your portfolio

We’re just getting started down this product path.

Flags are just the beginning of the . We can’t wait to keep building this future with you.

Wheelhouse settings have always included a and a .

However, those defaults were intentionally designed to be overridden by custom rules—like monthly, weekly, or time-based settings.

Today, we’re introducing : a new layer of protection for your minimum pricing and stay requirements—.

With Absolute Minimums, you can now create non-negotiable price and stay floors that are enforced no matter what other rules or changes are applied.

Whether your pricing floors are driven by , , or , you can now lock them in with confidence—no workarounds, no surprises.

Absolute Mins can be created at both the listing or portfolio level.

To add from the Portfolio Settings Page, simply:

Once an Absolute Minimum Price is set, you’ll see a new 🧱 icon on your calendar whenever .

Yes, Absolute Minimums offer essential protection—especially when owners or regulations set hard limits on price or stay length.

But they also unlock faster workflows.

With your floor in place, you can confidently adjust pricing on the calendar, knowing it will .

More than just control—this update helps you protect:

All while ensuring your most critical price and stay requirements are always enforced.

Each of your got a today.

Each of your settings (e.g., min prices, max price, min stays) now has two sub-sections:

Before Rules vs. Overrides, you were able to create “Custom Date Rules”.

However, the more time we spent with Revenue Managers, the more we realized RMs were using Custom Date Rules for two very different goals.

However, when RMs updated their rates… they did so by updating their Custom Date Rules… thereby overriding their initial strategy 😞

That meant when next year rolled around, revenue managers had to spend too much time recreating each listing’s revenue strategy.

This pattern led us to update the structure of our Settings Pages in the way you now see - splitting “” from “”, in order to create a safer, faster, and far more scalable way for revenue managers.

Ready for an easier way to control permissions for your Teammates?

Now you can set up Wheelhouse to automatically set permissions for your teammates, whenever a new listing appears on your account.

As an example, let’s set up Wheelhouse to automatically assign any new listings in Destin to a teammate.

If you (e.g., change the filters), listings that meet the new criteria will automatically appear on your teammate’s accounts.

Therefore, please use caution when adjust segments use are leveraging for Listing Permissions!

As a reminder, Wheelhouse has 4 permissions levels:

Most importantly, remember that all permissions are tied to specific listings.

By default, managers, editors and viewers only access listings they are assigned to.
