=== Multiple Properties or Rooms ===
If you're renting your property as a whole, you still need to define one "Room" which in your case represents your complete property.
If your rentals have different hotel/property codes for Booking.com etc. then they must be setup as different individual properties.
For further information see [[Agency_%26_Multiple_Property_Setup|here]].
*Go to ACCOUNT and complete your details
*Go to ACCOUNT > PREFERENCES and check the settings in Control Panel.
 
Most of the settings can be left with the default value, for more information on each setting, use (?) for the context help.
*If you want to use a language other than English on your booking page, go to ' {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) BOOKING ENGINE > INTERNATIONALIZATION and tick the ones you want to use. If you enable more than one language you will see tabs for each language in your descriptions, information on your booking page and notifications. Descriptions have to be entered in each language tab.
===Import from Airbnb===
If you have a listing on Airbnb you can import it and create a new property with a new room or add a room in a property you already have in Beds24. Click [[Connect_Airbnb_Account|here]] for instructions.
