How to Update Rates & Availability for the Next Year

On RoomRaccoon you can easily configure your rates and availability for the next year since sometimes guests book more than a year in advance. RoomRaccoon recommends that you create rates and restrictions up until the next year, these should also be communicated to your external channels. 

How to update rates for the next year

1. Click on the Channel manager tab on the left of the screen to navigate to your Rates and Availability overview.

2. Click on the pencil next to the room type to perform a bulk action.

3. Select the period of the next year (bulk actions can be performed for 1 year max.)

4. Click on the main price and enter your amount. (Find out more about rates and restrictions here.

5. If you have derived prices set up they will automatically adjust when you update your base price.

6. You can then set your rate to be overridable by any yield rules you set (for example: You can create a rate that includes a discount or increase for 3 days prior to an arrival. This is a great tool for last minute deals or increases during peak periods)

7. Click Synchronise.

Good To Know

• We also provide the option for the check-in or check-out to be closed on certain days. For example, if you want to differentiate your OTA prices from your own website prices, you can choose to force people who book via an OTA to stay for at least 2 nights. 

• You can also choose to close rates on certain channels in certain seasons to direct more traffic to your own website. Find out how here.
