By default the payout amount is imported into the "Invoice" tab of new bookings. After you have chosen your sync option you can change this option in SETTINGS-CHANNEL MANAGER "Invoice" = Booking Amount if you want to import the amount the guest pays. If you use this option the lodging amount and cleaning fee will be shown separately.

==== If you don’t have existing listings on Airbnb====
*Enquiries/Requests - if you receive a message from a potential guest enquiring Beds24 will create a request booking. If the request turns into a confirmed booking the status will automatically change. If you want to automatically cancel requests which do not turn into confirmed bookings you can set up an [[Auto_Actions|Auto Action]] to automatically cancel the booking after a certain period.
<span style="color:#fe746c;“ >{{#fas:exclamation-triangle}} </span> If you import enquiries you should set "Bookings with Request Status to "Do not block the room" in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) >PROPERTIES > BOOKING RULES so the room does not get blocked in Airbnb. If you block the room Airbnb will lock it. In this case the enquiry will be imported with the status "Cancelled" so it can convert to a confirmed booking.
You can view all messages from the "API Messages" component on the DASHBOARD and individual communication from the "API Messages" tab in the booking. You and your guests will see the messages in Airbnb.
