Booking Rules

Booking Rules define the options and rules applying to all bookings or bookings within a certain period.

• 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.

• 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.
