''This page explains how to set up room types and individual room using virtual rooms''
 
This function can be used
 
*if you offer your rooms by roomtype on your booking page but have several rooms of one type and want to assign bookings to specific rooms in the control panel and/or have the option to change the assigned room
 
*if you use booking channels (e.g. Airbnb) which can not handle room types
 
 
 
'''1. Setup your real rooms'''
 
 
 
If necessary add rooms in SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES -> ROOMS.  Go to SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES -> ROOMS -> SETUP  and
 
*Set "Quantity of This Type" to "1"
 
*Enter the number of Guests
 
*Set "Sell Priority" to "Hide Room"
 
*Leave all other settings on the defaults.
 
 
 
 
 
'''2. Create a virtual room to display on your booking page'''
 
 
 
If necessary add a room in SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES -> ROOMS.  Go to SETTINGS -> PROPERTIES -> ROOMS -> SETUP  and
 
*Set "Quantity of This Type" to the number of rooms of this room type.
 
*Enter the number of Guests
 
*Set "Requires Availability in" for each of your real rooms. The order defines where bookings will be placed first
 
*Set "Combination Logic" to "Sum of All Bookings"
 
*Set "Assign Bookings to"  to "First Available Dependency Room"
 
*Leave all other settings on the defaults.
 
 
 
To assign a booking to a different room just open the booking and change "Unit".
 
 
 
 
 
'''Note:''' The virtual room feature works only for online bookings.  If you add bookings manually place them in your "real rooms" not into virtual rooms.
 
 
 
'''Note:''' Occasionally a booking will not be able to be assigned automatically because for example a two night booking might reuire a change of room or other bookings to be re-assigned. In this case the booking will be assigned to the Virtual room and you must manually re-assign bookings to block the real rooms.
