When you set up rooms and rates in your Channel Manager, availability will be linked to the room type by default. Simply update your availability for each room type via the inventory grid (go to Inventory). Updates to the room type availability will apply to all connected room rates and channel rates.
Most channels, as well as Direct booking, support room type availability (also known as linked availability). However, if you would like to manage availability independently of a room type for each room rate, please contact our support team to enable this setting. You should confirm first if any of your channels support room rate availability.
An example when you might want to manage room rate availability independently:
If you have five rooms, and you have one discounted non-refundable rate, you might want to only sell one non-refundable rate.
If you multi-map two room rates (with linked availability) to the same room rate on the connected channel, they will still share the total availability from their room type.
