Pull_ListPropertyPrices_RS/Prices/Season/LOSS
FSP pricing model (N/A)
Pull_ListPropertyPrices_RS/FSPSeasons
FSP pricing model can be used if you are a PMS or an API user. It defines a fixed price for the whole stay, that is for an exact number of guests and nights.
-
Note that it will not be possible to make a reservation for a period in which prices are not defined.
-
Note that FSP pricing does not respect Standard number of guests or Maximum number of guests. Whatever is provided as the FSP records will be respected.
Example 1: Your standard number of guests = 4 and you provided prices only for 1 and 2 guests.
Result: The reservations with 3 and 4 guests will not be possible.
Example 2: Your maximum number of guests = 4 and you provided prices only for 5 and 6 guests.
Result: The reservations with 5 and 6 guests will not be possible.

Calendar
Pull_ListPropertyAvailabilityCalendar_RS
Calendar stands for the property's availability to rent. You can check here the availability of your property in the selected time frames. Once a reservation is inserted in Rentals United, the availability in the calendar gets blocked for this period. The calendar is updated automatically every time the availability of the property changes or at predefined times to remain up-to-date.
Preparation Time Before Arrival
Pull_ListSpecProp_RS/Property/PreparationTimeBeforeArrivalInHours
PTBA stands for Preparation Time Before Arrival. It is a general keyword to describe the minimum time a booking has to be made in advance in order to be accepted by the PM. The dates restricted by PTBA are normally set as not available already in the calendar. Hence, the PTBA data is already applied in availability and sent to the channel within the ARI data.
The PTBA in Rentals United blocks the availability x hours from 23:59 of the day of arrival on the property's local timezone. For example if the PTBA is set to 6 hours, bookings will be accepted until 18:00 of the day of arrival, after 18:00 the calendar will be closed. If the PTBA is set to 24 hours, bookings will be accepted until 23:59 before the day of arrival, after that the calendar will be closed.
Changeover restrictions
Changeover restrictions specify whether check-in or check-out is allowed for a given day. This is a great option if you need the guests checking in and out to fit your schedule and it will help you avoid unexpected guests. If some days are restricted from changeovers, then your guests will simply not be able to select such a stay if the start or end day falls on a changeover-restricted day.
