Define Seasons and Rates by Currency HotelRSV
The creation of Seasons (rates and period restrictions) is very similar to Novohit with the exception of the handling of Currencies and Promotions.
Save time: Remember that you can Synchronize Rates and Restrictions from Novohit by following this guide: Synchronization between hotelRSV and Novohit PMS.
Remember, it is possible to determine Guarantees for Reservations (Payment Methods)according to the Season Level. This is useful to determine if any form of payment will apply according to certain conditions (e.g. Payment with Credit Card mandatory for Non-Refundable). See: Guarantees for Reservations (Payment Methods).
Types of Currencies (Rates in Different Currencies)
In hotelRSV, the different currencies are managed at the level of "Agencies", each agency manages its own currency, so to have different currencies you must register a new agency, assign the currency and configure the seasons. To perform this procedure, you must contact our support team via help.novohit.com.
HotelRSV Taxes
Rate taxes are configured at the Agency level (currency). The configurations can be:
A) Agency rates With Tax or Without Tax.
B) Agency with rates with Tax included in the rate or Tax NOT included in the rate.
However, in order to avoid doubts or common conflicts with guests who complain about undeclared rates or values, regardless of the tax configuration in the Agency, all public applications with which the client/guest interacts will always show the total rates with taxes and the corresponding breakdowns. It is recommended to add all the necessary clarifications in Rate Types and Reservation Terms and Conditions,
Automatic Conversion: When rates are synchronized from HotelRSV with Novohit, the systems will automatically calculate the tax of the rate according to the configuration of the Agency in Novohit, that is, the system will automatically calculate the applicable tax in Novohit regardless that the configurations are different between hotelRSV and Novohit.
Select the type of currency: to do so, select the agency or company to which you want to assign seasons from the drop-down list in the Search Agency section and click on the Search button.
If the currency type has seasons they will be shown in the section Set Season For, otherwise they will be shown blank with the indication "No Records". Below it will be the Insert icon, click on it to start a new record.
For the Booking Engine to work properly, there must always be a rate available (active and valid) for a given date. If there is more than one, they must be applied in different conditions, for example: "weekend", "midweek", etc.
Assign Promotions to the Season
Once the promotion has been created in Define Promotions - SPLENDIDUS to activate it in the hotelRSV booking engine you must select it in:
Field | Description |
Promotion | You must select the promotion to be activated in the multi-selector. |
Add | Button to add promotion to season. |
Ignore | Button to ignore and not add any Promotion. |
You can add more than one promotion in a season.
