Common channel settings
Rate multiplier
A rate multiplier adjusts your rates before they are sent to a channel. Use the Rate multiplier simulator to test how your channel rates will change compared to your daily Full rate.
Your rates in the Inventory grid show without the Rate multiplier applied.
Currency conversion
To use Currency conversion:
First enable currency conversion in Setup > General information
Configure currency conversion in Channel settings to send prices to the channel in a different currency to your base currency
The currency selected in Little Hotelier must match the currency in the channel’s extranet.
Notes:
Currency conversion only applies to rates in the Inventory grid
Currency conversion cannot be used if rate plan currency is enabled (i.e. if you choose to use different currencies in the inventory grid)
Currency conversion will not apply to extra charges configured in the channel rate’s settings (i.e. extra person charges and discounts)
These extra charges need to be set in the currency being sent to the channel, as currency conversion will not apply to them
Check your channels after changing currency settings to ensure correct rates are displayed. It may take several minutes for channels to display updates.
Reservation email address
