Export Availabilities and LOS (Length of stay)
Export Prices(Multiple rate types)
We have two types of Pricing
a) Per day pricing:
Per Night prices are sent directly as they are configured in ‘Rates’. Special Prices cannot be sent to Booking.com for ‘Per day’ prices as the price cache is not used for the same
- Close room restrictions
- Minimum Length of stay restrictions
- Close to arrival restrictions
- Close to Departure restrictions
b) Length of stay pricing
In length of stay pricing (LOS), for every Arrival Date Maximum stay Prices are sent.Firstly, the LOS Prices get uploaded on Price Cache where the final price is calculated by considering special and other factors and then from there the final Prices are sent to Booking.com.
Example:
For 1st October,2022: 3 Nights Prices are configured as 350. So for 1st Oct Prices will be sent as:
-- 1 Night prices: 0
-- 2 Night Prices: 0
-- 3 Night prices: 350
