PDF rate sheets: a field note from cabin rentals

How cabin rentals deals with PDF rate sheets — and what usually goes wrong.
The problem: a form that emails a shared inbox. The PDF rate sheets data is out of sync for cabin rentals.
The job started when cabin rentals realised their PDF rate sheets had been wrong for months. Nobody noticed because the site still loaded.
Automate PDF rate sheets if you can. If you cannot, write a quarterly reminder in a calendar that someone actually checks. a form that emails a shared inbox is what happens when nobody does either.
We write notes like this one because the same problems come back. If someone at cabin rentals reads it and avoids a form that emails a shared inbox, the note paid for itself.
We check PDF rate sheets for cabin rentals once a quarter. It takes five minutes and has caught two problems in the past year. Both would have caused downtime within a week.
The owner at cabin rentals asked why PDF rate sheets matters. We showed them the error page their customers see when it breaks. That ended the conversation.
Before you touch PDF rate sheets, take a screenshot of the current state. Half of our emergency calls come from people who cannot remember what was there before the change.
