Global settings

Global Settings holds the defaults every venue on your account shares. Set them once during onboarding and you'll rarely need them again. The account defaults are in the Global Settings panel on the right of the page.

ℹ️Note

Only account-level admins see Global Settings. Venue admins, regional admins and read-only users don't have it in their menu.

Every control in the panel saves as soon as you change it, except Time Slot Duration, which asks you to confirm first (see the next section).

Change the time slot duration

Package durations, schedules and buffers are stored as a number of slots, so changing the slot length changes the real time they cover. Rex can rescale them for you so they keep the same real-world times.

1

Select a new Time Slot Duration

Pick the new length in the Global Settings panel. The Change Time Slot Duration? dialog opens and nothing is saved yet.

Time Slot Duration is the third control in the panel.

Choose what to rescale

Leave Auto-update related settings on to keep the same real-world times, for example 2 slots of 30 minutes become 1 slot of 60 minutes. Untick anything you want left as it is.

FieldDescription

Click Confirm & Update

The new duration and the rescaled settings are saved together.

The Change Time Slot Duration? dialog with the four Auto-update options ticked and the Confirm & Update button (3)
Click Confirm & Update to save the new duration.
⚠️Warning

Existing reservations are not changed. If you turn Auto-update related settings off, every duration keeps its slot count, so a package set to 2 slots of 30 minutes becomes 2 hours long after a switch to 1-hour slots.

Other cards on this page

The cards on the left of the page cover your booking page and guest data:

  • Brand Images, Page Colors, Page Settings and Reservation Page Settings: logos, colors and page text, covered in Branding and design.
  • Customer Profile: which profile fields guests fill in, and the guest checkout and account options, covered in Customize your reservation page.
  • Memberships Page: the text on your memberships page and in membership emails.
  • Revenue Categories, Cancellation Reasons, Occasions and How did you hear about us: the lists staff and guests pick from.
  • Event Calendar: turns on the public events calendar page, if your plan includes it.
  • Privacy: HIPAA Mode, which keeps guest emails and phone numbers out of Rex server logs and signs staff out after 12 hours.

Refresh your booking page in another tab after a change to check that prices, dates and times display the way you want. Setting up a venue outside the US? See Configure international settings.
