LOS pricing model
Sales Channel does not accept LOS pricing model and requires Rentals United to provide the prices in the "one price for each night" format. Based on your LOS prices in Rentals United, we perform the following calculations, so that your pricing is the most accurate on the Sales Channel side:
-
In case you have some LOS pricing defined, we will try to use it. We will always try to use the LOS price to calculate the nightly price in the first place.
-
If we cannot use the LOS price, we will send the Daily price. All LOS prices will be ignored.
Note that it may result in slight discrepancies in the pricing. See here for more information.

Calendar
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
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.
