...-- even if you can't get set up a rule to cover a scenario for instant book, you will be able to set up the payments exactly how you want on a quote before you send it (as opposed to being limited to 2 like it is now).

Yep, we're trying to nudge more questions over here on the forums as well -- it's a great knowledge base for everyone.

...they all have a different approach but it would be extremely helpful.

It would be great to get an update from OR on this request and its challenges.

PS the UI should define infants as "Under 2" like AirBnB and the airlines

...inable way a guest could screw/screw up a VR owner. Now I am uncomfortable chasing away prospects when I have only part of the year left. Is it possible to retrieve the default ownerrez agreement?

2) Also, I saw a forum discussion that ABB does not allow/enable attaching a rental agreement for guests to sign. True? Their policy or other? Thoughts?

...t showing cumulatives (ie: annual) nights per booking clearly includes months with zero bookings.

The report shows my annual at about 1 booking/night for the year, when every month with bookings is 2 or 3 nights.

Can y'all fix this? Would be best to calculate the annual across the full year, same as I imagine is being done for each month. Using an averages of averages isn't the right approach...

...y to do pictures now.

I am struggling with (as new VR owner) pricing. These are the factors going through my mind:

1) Our high season is essentially May into November. I have lost May, June, July

2) Everyone says to lower prices until you get at least 3 positive reviews on each property.

3) ABB Smart Pricing suggests Base, High and other prices. But a lot of owners say Smart Pricing is unreal...

...do this. My guests really appreciate these letters, even though it will automatically be done now (if paid via CC). Especially, the ones paying via check, appreciate these emails. I send them out 2 weeks prior to 30/60 days prior to arrival. Plenty of time for them to put money in their account, if need be, and send the checkout in time.

Thanks,

Many hotels now offer guests two types of a rates: 1) regular rate with flexible cancellation and 2) a discount rate that's nonrefundable. This is a great strategy to generate reliable bookings further out on the calendar. Help desk indicates that OR does not currently support this use case.

Although it would be great to execute against this strategy across all channels, I would prioritize deve...

Hi all.

Anyone having VRBO issues?

VRBO listing integration

VRBO unit availability integration

VRBO lodging rates integration

all with Advertiser index processing failed with error.

I’ve run the listing quality analysis and everything looks ok.

Any thoughts?

...s' devices at the same time, each of which could get out of whack.

FYI - last month we were finally approved for Airbnb API integration, and we are currently waist deep working on it. It is a full (2 way) integration just like we have for HomeAway. We are looking to test beta users on it probably end of Q3 or beginning of Q4.

A lot of the stuff is out there - articles, forum threads, etc.

I am a writer by trade. There is two parts to documentation 1) content and 2) getting people to that content.

The main problem I am finding in setting up, is it is a fishing expedition to find applicable explanations and grasp stuff to apply it. You would spend less time explaining some stuff to forum questioners, if you organized 8...

Hi Michelle,

So how would I do this -
Inquiry comes into your system
1) system creates a quote
2) I accept the values and send it - but can I modify it to delete the rental agreement link and then if they say they want to rent I send them my normal rental agreement - I can always have wording on the rental agreement link to say something to the effect the rental agreement will be sent via ema...

...f the property accounts then "split" the transaction between the properties. This means on P&L reports, etc, the shared cost was apportioned as per the split.   

2) Open a separate account for shared expenses, or in your case, "management" expenses. You can have as many accounts as you want, each with it...
