Sell a room only if another room is unavailable
This page explains how to make a room only bookable if another room is unavailable
Example 1: A hotel has 2 room types (Double A with a quantity of 10 and Double B with a quantity of 2). Double B is only bookable if Double A is sold out.
1. Set up your rooms:
- Create one room type Double A
- Create one room type Double B
2. Set up the room dependency settings in SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES for Double B
- Requires Availability in = Double A
- Combination Logic = No Units must be available
Leave all other setting set to the defaults.
3. Go to SETTINGS->BOOKING PAGE->PAGE DESIGN and set "Room Order" = Hide Unavailable
Example 2: A hotel has 2 room types (Double A with a quantity of 10 and Double B with a quantity of 2). Double B is only bookable if less than 3 units of Double A are left
1. Set up your rooms:
- Create one room type Double A
- Create one room type Double B
2. Set up the room dependency settings in SETTINGS->PROPERTIES->ROOMS->DEPENDENCIES for Double B
- Requires Availability in = Double A
- Combination Logic = 2 or less units must be available
Leave all other setting set to the defaults.
3. Go to SETTINGS->BOOKING PAGE->PAGE DESIGN and set "Room Order" = Hide Unavailable
Note: 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.
