This page explains how to use virtual rooms to sell two rooms independently and as a suite at the same time | |||
__TOC__ | |||
=Use= | |||
You can use this method if: | |||
You sell individual rooms and link them together to sell as a suite. | |||
<div class="warning">{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} If you are using dependencies please test thoroughly to make sure your set up reflects your rules. If you are connecting one physical room more than once to a booking channel you are risking overbookings.</div> | |||
=How it works= | |||
Selling rooms individually or as a suite. | |||
Bookings are assigned to the 'booked' room and a mirror booking is shown in the dependencies to close | |||
The virtual room requires availability in all of the real rooms. | |||
Bookings are assigned to the room/suite and mirrored in the other room/suite closing the availability. | |||
