Appointments your guests book themselves online now appear in the Lead Manager as Online Bookings, kept apart from your lead counts, and the staff who get lead alerts get an email for each one. Salon Performance by Marketing Partner moves into the Marketing section with a new ROAS (90d) column that shows what each location's leads returned on its ad spend. The Sales Dashboard stylist table gains the Retention look-back box, the Corporate Dashboard ranks its cards on dollars as well as percent and shows variance to budget for the month and the year, and Bishops shops get a live Avg Revenue per Visit tile on the Front Desk.

What's in this release​

For salons​

  • Sales Dashboard: the Average Stylist Revenue table has a Retention look-back box next to its dates, the same control as on Revenue by Employee. It starts at 90 days; type another number (0 to 365) and click Apply to measure the Retention % columns on a more recent or an older group of guests. A line under the table states the look-back the rows were run with. The Salon Health Retention tile always uses 90 days, and Frenchies' Nail It! table, which has no Retention % columns, has no box (Sales Dashboard).
  • Online bookings: appointments guests book themselves on your online booking site are listed in Marketing Analytics → Lead Manager labelled Online Booking, with their own tile. They are not leads and stay out of every lead count. Staff who get lead alerts also get an email for each new online booking, labelled as a booking. Lead Manager · Email & Notifications.

For corporate teams​

  • Corporate Dashboard ranked lists rank on dollars: a new Rank by $ | % switch next to Winners | Losers ranks the growth and budget cards on dollars or on percent. It opens on $, so a large location that is down 5% but $500,000 on the year comes ahead of a small one that is down 100% on $12,000. Each row shows the other measure in its caption (Franchise Performance).

  • Corporate Dashboard detail table shows variance to budget for the month and the year: the table now carries Var % MTD, Var $ MTD, Var % YTD and Var $ YTD, each with its dates under the heading. The Budget column moved into the opened row and the CSV export (Franchise Performance).

  • Salon Performance by Marketing Partner moves out of Beta into Marketing: it now sits under Corporate Reports → Marketing, alongside Marketing Leads and Franchisee Prospects, and no longer carries the Beta tag. Nothing about running it changed; bookmarks to the report still work, and its Back button returns you to the Marketing section (Corporate Reports).

  • Salon Performance by Marketing Partner: a new ROAS (90d) column after Collections, with a Blended ROAS (90d) tile and a Blended ROAS (90d) column on the MoM view. It covers the 90 days that end two weeks before the end of the month — the two weeks give each lead time to book and come in before it counts against ad spend — and counts what those leads paid in the first 90 days after they arrived, divided by the ad spend on the same days, so one month compares with another. A month is marked still filling until every lead in its window has had its 90 days. It is the Blended ROAS (First 90d) figure on Marketing Health for the same dates. The window and its status are written out under the table and on the export's Notes sheet (Corporate Reports → Marketing, Salon Performance by Marketing Partner).

  • Bishops and Frenchies corporate teams: Corporate Reports, Shop Reports, Studio Reports and the Corporate Dashboard are not shown to corporate users of these two systems. Platform admins still see them, and location leadership with reporting access still has its own reports (Corporate Reports, Salon Reports).

For platform admins​

  • Feedback Management is now available to platform admins only; corporate users no longer see it under Feature Requests. Submit Feedback and View Feature Requests are unchanged (Feature Requests).

Fixes​

  • Corporate Dashboard loads faster: the page and its budget figures load faster, on first open and after a date change (Franchise Performance).
  • Corporate Dashboard: the Var to Budget tiles and the budget ranked card write their dates the same way as the rest of the page, for example "vs Jan 1 – Oct 15, 2026 YTD budget" (Franchise Performance).
  • Front Desk Dashboard at Bishops: the Avg Ticket placeholder marked Soon is now a live Avg Revenue per Visit tile, showing this month's average sale per visit across the shop, the same figure as the Sales Dashboard's Salon Health tile, with the month's goal when one is set (Front Desk Dashboard).
  • Clipboard / Wait List: the link next to the page title now reads Use the classic Wait List, and the classic page's return link reads Back to the Clipboard (Front Desk Utilities → Clipboard / Wait List, Classic Wait List).
  • End-of-Day Owner Summary: the subject line and header name Bishops and Frenchies locations with their brand in front, the same way the salon picker does ("Frenchies Beaverton" rather than "Beaverton").
