Objective

The purpose of this document is provide a high-level overview of the commonalities, and differences, between configuring channels with the new Boost interface.

...

Fee, Tax, and Amenity mappings will be done at a global level, meaning these are settings that impact all listings distributed on that channel. Some settings like booking policies, content, and price modifications can be modified under the Listings tab for individual, or groups, of units. This article here will outline more information about these sorts of bulk configuration settings.

Best Practices for Channel Configuration

Booking Lead Time (Booking Lead Time Hours)
This setting will only be needed if you are trying to override what you have set in your PMS. If no value is set, Boost will default to the booking lead time pulling from your PMS. 

In order to accept bookings in Boost - Boost must be set EQUAL or MORE RESTRICTIVE than your PMS 

If Boost is set as LESS RESTRICTIVE, this can cause bookings to fail  

  • For example if you have your Boost settings set at 2 days notice and your PMS is set for 3 days notice, all of the Boost bookings will fail

NOTE: For clients using rate management platforms such as RevMax or Beyond Pricing, please note that your booking lead time settings will override your PMS settings
