2. Go to the ‘General’ tab in the upper left corner

New customer on the channel:

When a hotel is interested in a partnership with Hotels.nl, they can send an e-mail to the Hotels.nl new connection team.

Timeframe:

When navigating to 'Hotels.nl XML interface for booking sites' and selecting a channel manager, the switch will be generated automatically. Therefore there is no time frame for the switch.

Credentials.

Who provides what?

In order to get the XML credentials, the only thing you need is the login details to the Hotels.nl interface, which are in the possession of the hotel. When the hotel informs you that they want the connection, all you need to do is ask for the login details of the Hotels.nl interface and then follow the steps described in the Switch tab.

Mapping.

Rooms

Occupancy based pricing is supported.

If you set up your Deluxe room type for example for both, single and double use, that is possible.  In the mapping for the room type, you can enable the room type for single use as well.

If you set up your room type with the settings 2-3 or 2-4 in the extranet, it is also possible to enable the setting use triple use and use quad use.

In the example below the channel manager will upload a single and double rate.

Rates

Multiple rates are supported.

Breakfast is created in the rate code on the Hotels.nl site. There is no need to select a boarding type.  A distinction is made between BI and LO.  BI stands for the rate excluding breakfast and LO stands for the rate including breakfast.

Mapping
