=Summary=

You can set rules for all bookings and specificly for direct online bookings from your booking page.

*'''Near Term Bookings''' - You can select how many days in advance to consider a near term booking and the style ~~of booking completion for near term bookings. You may use a different strategy than your normal bookings. If a booking includes near term and exceptional dates the booking type will be as set~~ for ~~exceptional dates~~.

Use the context help <span style="color:#007bff;“ >{{#far:question-circle}} </span> for information on each setting.

*'''Exceptional Period Booking''' - ~~The exceptional period is a period you~~ can ~~define to use a special booking style or blackout period. It includes all dates between~~ the ~~first~~ and last night. This may be used to easily blackout a date range. Another example would be to only accept On Request bookings during the exceptional period while still accepting Automatic bookings at other times.

<span style="color: #f3e504; font-size: 150%;" >{{#fas:lightbulb}} </span> You can apply additional rules in the CALENDER in Offers and prices.
