==== Prices ====
In SETTINGS- >CHANNEL MANAGER->VRBO/Homeaway XML ->SPECIFIC ROOM CONTENT you can set which type of price you want to send.
"Max Stay" set in the CALENDAR or rates can be sent.
<span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} Note: </span> VRBO/Homeaway occupancy pricing only support minimum stays up to 30 days.
With '''Per Day Pricing''' the price sent is a room price, only ONE price can be sent per date. If you have multiple prices activated for VRBO/Homeaway with different minimum stays the system will send the price with the lowest minimum stay. VRBO/Homeaway applies the minimum stay " first night only" meaning restrictions must only be satisfied for the arrival date of the booking but not on every day of the booking. If you use daily prices with "Extra Person" prices your daily price needs to be set for the max occupancy and the "Extra Person" price needs to be added with a negative value so the price for the full occupancy can send. With Per Day Pricing you can also set an extra person price.
"Pricing Policy" is set to "Quoted" VRBO/Homeaway will request the price for the period and the number of guests selected from Beds24.
