Synchronising Beds24.com with your LateRooms.com or AsiaRooms.com account
Capabilities

What you will need:
- Your LateRooms Hotelier username and password.
- The LateRooms room code for each room you want to synchronise as described below.
LateRooms: Beds24 will synchronise one property within LateRooms. If you have multiple properties defined in LateRooms it will synchronise the first one only.
To determine your room codes, login to your LateRooms account, go to the rates and availability page showing only the one particular room of interest. Look at the URL displayed by your web browser, it will have an item near the end such as "roomid=456789" in the URL. The number displayed in your browser is your room code.
If you only have one room defined in Laterooms be sure to click it just under the heading "View ALL Room Types" so as to display the roomid= value in the URL.
Beds24.com: Sign into your Beds24.com account and go to the Synchroniser. Select LateRooms.com and change it to enabled, click Save. Enter your username, password and room codes in the fields and enable the link for each room. The property code is not required. Click Save again to save your changes.
Bookings To import your bookings you must set a copy of the property notification email from LateRooms to be sent to the following email address: [email protected] replacing the 0000 with your Beds24 account number. For example if you are account number 123 the email address will be [email protected]
Beds24.com will attempt to identify the room being booked by comparing the room name set in Beds24 to the room name sent by Laterooms in the booking notification email. Please ensure the names match as closely as possible so new bookings are assigned to the correct rooms. The Laterooms room name can be entered for each room in the synchroniser settings to help matching.
If you include the following text "roomidxxxx" in your laterooms room description the bookings for that room will be imported into your Beds24 room xxxx where xxxx is the Beds24 room id number for your room.
