General Help and Questions » Syncing Error

Honestly it could be anywhere... We're looking into adding some tools to perhaps find and identify the problem field, but that may be awhile.

We've looked into some of these, and while we always want to keep an open mind, we weren't impressed by the value-add - the costs seemed to be excessive, as well as certain technical aspects that wou…

There is not, and, I'm not sure this would be a good idea, as by default OwnerRez stores guest data basically forever, but IDs do expire.

Feature Requests » New API instructions for booking.com

Unfortunately, we've never managed to find anyone at Booking.com to have the direct relationship with us that we have with several other channels, so, I'm afraid there's no way to do that.  Hopefully…

General Help and Questions » Discounts: Airbnb vs. Beyond Pricing

Yes, that is generally correct that discounts should be put in OwnerRez.  But, it is still possible to produce the strikethroughs in Airbnb: https://www.ownerrez.com/support/articles/channel-mana…

Feature Requests » VRBO Native Messaging in OwnerRez via API integration

We cannot begin development until Vrbo provides documentation about what their interface will be, which AFAIK has not yet occurred.  So basically, your second guess is correct, except that we are in …

Feature Requests » Add internal notes on surcharges and discounts.

When I passed this over to the engineers, they came back with a truly out-there interim suggestion... Add a unicode emoji to the surcharge description.  It will be meaningless to the guest, but w…

General Help and Questions » Guest adding a night to already paid booking

Part of the issue here is the TOS'es of the various listing channels, that restrict or disallow extending bookings off-platform.  Since we have partnership agreements with the channels, we cannot int…
