If you export inventory you will also need to export rates from Beds24.
Rates can not be set within the Booking.com extranet.
Booking.com may not send the Guest Email address to some accounts. Your Booking.com rep may be able to get this enabled in your account if it occurs.
3 Booking.com
Initiate the XML connection from the property menu within the booking.com extranet and then do the Beds24 setup.
1) Login to Booking.com and go to the Property Information section.
2) Select the Channel Manager menu. (left side of screen)
3) Click the Start button and search for BEDS24.
4) Complete the rest of the on screen instructions.
5) When ready you will receive a notification from Booking.com allowing you to activate the new connection.
4 Beds24.com
1) Enter your Booking.com Hotel Id into the Property Code setting and save.
2) Open the link to view Room, Rate Mapping for your property.
3) Identify the Booking.com Room Id numbers for each room and enter them in the Room Code setting.
4) Identify the standard Rate Id number for each room and enter this in the Rate Code setting. It is normal for booking.com to use the same rate code for each room.
5) If you have multiple rates for a room you can create additional rates in Beds24 and set the additional Rate Id codes directly in the appropriate Beds24 rate.
6) Make sure your rates have the Booking.com XML channel enabled.
5 Activating
1) After all setup is complete open a support ticket to let us know you are ready.
2) Once we enable the connection at Beds24 you will receive an email allowing you to activate it (go live) from the booking.com extranet.
3) When you go live your rates and inventory will be deleted from booking.com and a full reload will occur from Beds24. You can use the "Send Update" button to speed this up. You bookings will not be deleted from Booking.com but make sure the dates are blocked in Beds24 so they will not be reopened.
4) Once updated, check all your values in the booking.com extranet for correctness and if required make any adjustments to the settings to fix.
5) New bookings will Import.
6 Notes
1) Credit card details are imported and shown on the "DETAILS" tab of the booking.
2) We can make a once off request to Booking.com to import your existing bookings (up to 3 months old). Please contact us if you would like to arrange this. The success of the booking import depends on Booking.com returning your pre XML bookings correctly and we cannot guarantee it will be successful.
