__TOC__
To show/send availability the system needs a price for the guests selection. If you have no prices for a certain date the system will show no availability. For this reason it is important to keep prices up-to-date.

The system has two types of prices:
*Daily Prices
*Rates
Which type you use depends on your pricing structure:
=='''Daily Prices'''==Daily Prices are prices for one date. Up to four prices per date can be defined for example for different occupancies.
Note: Rules in rates have no effect on daily prices.
