a) Description Code
Code of dynamic field which is used on accommodation type or resort depend on what has been considered for creating property and that dynamic field will have the description which will be Booking.com specific.
b) Hotel Checkin Code
If setting "reseller.checkin.time" is not defined then it means every resort which will be linked and used to create a property on Booking.com should have the dynamic field which will have the checkin time defined for every resort. We can also create a dynamic field if we want to set check-in time differently only for a few resorts and other resorts having same check-in time will get the value from setting "reseller.checkin.time". So keep this setting to store that dynamic field code along with the setting "reseller.checkin.time".
c) Hotel Checkout Code
If setting "reseller.checkout.time" is not defined then it means every resort which we are going to link and used to create property on Booking.com should have the dynamic field created which will have a unique value for every resort. We can also create a dynamic field if we want to set check-in time differently only for a few resorts and other resorts having the same checkout time will get the value from setting "reseller.checkout.time". So we can keep this setting to store that dynamic field code along with the setting "reseller.checkout.time".
d) Hotel Roomcount Code
Store the code of the dynamic field to add the count that how many rooms are configured under the particular property. This setting is required only if a resort has been considered to create the property on Booking.com, if accommodation type has been considered then it will be done automatically by counting the object under that accommodation type.
e) Hotel Star Rating Code
At the property level, it is mandatory to send ratings starting from 1 to 5. So, a dynamic field needs to be created on accommodation type or resort level to store that rating. The code of this dynamic field needs to be entered in this setting so the rating can be sent to Booking.com .
f) Property Type
This is the code of dynamic field that will be used to store the value of Booking.com Property type code that represents what kind of rooms the properties are offering. Is it offering a hotel, condo, or apartment? Booking.com has a unique code for every type.
g) Room Name Code
When properties/Acco-type are to be linked through Booking.com content API, we cannot send any (MXTS) Acco-type name to them, we need to make sure that only ‘Booking.com English standard’ names are specified at the Acco-type level in a dynamic field, and then we need to mention the Code of that dynamic field in this setting. We need to also make sure that the ‘No’ Acco-types of the same Location should have the same ‘Booking.com English standard’ name. The same names can be differentiated by appending numeric values in front of them.
For example One of the accommodation types can be called ‘Tent 1’ and then the other one can be named as ‘Tent 2’.Fees & Taxes Features
