You can specify one price row for channel management and one for your own web site. Go to SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DAILY PRICES and define which price row is used for channel management. Then set up your prices in the CALENDAR.
Each daily price can be used for any combination of channels and your booking page. Use the tick boxes at Settings  >  Properties  > Rooms  > Daily Prices > Enable to specify which channels the price can be used for.

Daily Prices have limitations when it comes to sending them to the channels. You can either send them or not send them but you can not control which channels you send them to. If you want to send different prices to different channels you need to use rates.
If you have multiple rate codes at a channel, you can enter the rate code for the channel in the daily price settings.


===Use Daily Prices to override rates ===
===Use Daily Prices in combination with rates ===
If activated for channel management Daily Price 1 will override the rate Id you have entered in the channel manager settings. Make sure "Daily Price Strategy" set in SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->BOOKING RULES has the appropriate setting. In most cases this would be "Do not allow any other Rates".
If you use rates and daily prices together, the system will offer the lowest available price which meets all your rules.
 
If you have multiple rate Ids:
*Map your rate Ids as described in the "Multiple Rates using Daily Prices" sections of the channels set up instructions.
*Go to SETTINGS-PROEPRTIES-ROOM-DAILY PRICES and activate "Daily Price 2 " for channel management and set it to "Offer 2". Daily Price 2 will now sent to the second rate Id you have mapped. If you have more rate Ids do the same for Daily Price 3 and 4.
*When you go to the CALENDAR you will see a additional price rows where you can enter the price to override your second rate Ids.
