  1. Once your Beds24 and Jervis Systems accounts are connected, go to your Properties page within your Jervis Systems account and click “Refresh Properties”. When the page had reloaded, you will see all the property listings imported from your Beds24 account. Select the three dots to the right of each listing to view and edit your property details. (Important: Be sure that your time zone details are set and correct for each of your properties.)

The next steps will walk you through setting up automated access between Jervis Systems and Beds24 for your imported reservations.

Note: All of your messages sharing access info with guests will go through Beds24.  We store the pin generated with each reservation on Beds24.  You can use the [BOOKINGINFOCODETEXT:JERVIS_LOCK_PIN] variable in your Beds24 messaging. 

  1. To start setting this up, go to the Devices page and connect to your smart locks and devices by selecting the “Import Devices” button. From there, select your smart lock or device system provider and follow the prompts to connect your smart lock account.

  1. Within the message, copy and paste the following text: Your door code is [BOOKINGINFOCODETEXT:JERVIS_LOCK_PIN].

This variable will allow the guest code to populate in the email. Be sure to save the template once you have finished editing.
