Credentials.

The extranet user is provided by Citybreak to the property. The same credentials are used for the XML user and XML password. The PIN is the hotelcode on Citybreak and will be provided by Citybreak.

Mapping.

As you can see in the example mapping here, there are lots of rates (allotment groups on Citybreak) available. You only connect 1 allotment group / 1 rate. Please check with the property which one should be used.

Multiple rates can be mapped, however, please bear in mind that the restrictions are set on room level.

Citybreak supports occupancy based pricing for the single rate only. The channel manager will always send a single and double rate to Citybreak.

Useful Info.
