== Before you connect ==
'''Prices'''
*We can only send availability if you have set up prices which are activated for this channel. This tutorial gives general information how to [[Setting_Prices_for_Booking_Channels|set prices for channels]].
*Prices for "Extra Person",  "Extra child" and discounts set in the "Discounts" tab of the  Fixed Prices can not be sent.
 
'''Bookings'''
 
New Bookings are imported.
 
Existing bookings are not automatically imported when the connection is established and should be entered into Beds24 manually.
 
'''Extras and Taxes'''
 
"Upsell Items" can not be exported.
 
'''Rooms and room types'''
 
If you have room types here and sell rooms individually at another channel or your own web site and want to sell them here as a "roomtype" with a quantity of more than one you can [[Combine_individual_rooms_into_a_roomtype|set up virtual roooms]].
 
===Setup===
====Hostel International====
Forward the following information to [email protected]:
 
Hostel Name
 
Hostel Interface Id: Your Beds24 property ID
 
Product (room) Ids: Beds24 room IDs you want to synchronise and the corresponding HostelInternational room IDs.
 
====Beds24====
*Tick "Inventory", "Prices" and "Bookings".


=== Price Multiplier ===
If you want to add a multiplier to your prices, for example because the channel requires a different currency to your Beds24 currency, add a * followed by the multiplier number to the multiplier setting.


==What you will need==
For example *1.23 will multiply all prices by 1.23 sent. (i.e. raised by 23%) Lower prices can be sent with a multiplier less than 1, i.e. 123456*0.85 will send a price 85% of the normal price (i.e. lowered by 15%)


==Setup==
You can also use currency conversion template variable. All currencies supported by the booking page currency selector can be used.


==Common Errors==
For example *[CONVERT:IDR-EUR] will convert Indonesian Rupees to Euros.


== Updates and Changes==
Changes to availability and prices will be instantly sent to the channel. Changes for settings for example minimum stays, the multiplier or number of rooms will send with the next update. Click on "Update" if you want to push them through instantly.
