Rate Mixer: rate selection in overlapping seasons with overlapping dates

The Rate Mixer of HotelRSV allows the hotelier to configure HotelRSV to automatically select the lowest (cheapest) or highest (most expensive) rate depending on the configuration of the parameter Rsv_Season_Sel_Rates.

Rsv_Season_Sel_Rates: Selecting the cheapest or most expensive rate

By default, HotelRSV's Rate Mixer is in auto mode, i.e. Novohit will select the first season that meets all constraints.

It is possible to configure the Rate Mixer so that HotelRSV selects the season with the cheapest or the most expensive rates thanks to the Rsv_Season_Sel_Rates parameter. If you need to set it to automatically select the lowest (min mode) or highest (max mode) rate, you can submit a ticket at help.novohit.com. The Rate Mixer configuration is hotel-wide, i.e. it applies to all agencies and seasons of a hotel. 

If the Rate Mixer is set to min or max mode (Rsv_Season_Sel_Rates), Novohit will give priority first to the cheapest season that meets all restrictions. This is important especially in cases where you have to compare unrestricted seasons vs the one with MinStay. If the unrestricted season has the most expensive or cheapest rate and this matches the Rsv_Season_Sel_Rates setting, the unrestricted season will be taken vs. the one with restrictions.
