Possible error in rental charge calculation, embeding calendar

Hi Jon,

What you saw was a result of the booking occurring across two different rate periods. At the moment, the rate engine calculates rent line items based on the first rate period the booking occurs within.

It's been a dilemma whether we should break that up or not. There are advantages and disadvantages to breaking up rate period charges. For instance, a lot of owners have weekly rates so the guest is supposed to get a discount for 7 days. However, if the booking fell across two different rate periods, the charges would cut up the booking into two different groups of nights and no discount for 7 days would occur. Which method is more correct? It depends on the owner and how they feel.

I assume you've followed the normal embed HTML instructions that Google Sites mentions here:

If you've done that, and it's still failing, it may be getting blocked. For instance, Google Sites may be blocking our code do to security issues. I will check with a developer and see what we can find.

Hi - Thanks for the quick reply.

What you could do in terms of the rates, is set priorities for the rate tables so that some can override others. In our case, I would want the individually set dates to override anything else which might be setup, because they are unique/special dates.

I guess the other way to do this is to setup the rate table to exclude these special dates (creating > 1 rate tables for the "normal" parts of the year).

But since everything can be manually overridden, there are workarounds.

And yep I believe the issue with HTML is related to security or restrictions around what javascript libraries can be used in an HTML box.

The calendar details are populated by OwnerRez so you have full control over what you want to do, but you can manage who sees the detail through the sharing settings in Google Calendar.

If you go into the calendar settings in Google Calendar, you'll see a sharing settings section. There, you'll want to check the "Make this calendar public" box (so everybody can see the dates), but also select "See only free/busy (hide details)" so the booking details don't come up.

If you set it up that way, people will only see "Busy" for the bookings, not the details.

Make sure to log out of your Google account before checking whether the details show up -- if you're logged in, Google will see that you have permissions and show everything rather than using the public permissions.
