Mapping room types and rate plans

Nothing is sent for anything unmapped. Map the hotel, then each room type and rate plan.

AxisRooms has its own ids for your hotel, your room types and your rate plans. Mapping is saying which of theirs is which of yours.

Nothing unmapped is ever sent. An unmapped room type is one the channel manager has never heard of, and inventing an id for it would sell a room that does not exist.

Map in this order:

  1. The hotel — until this exists, the hotel is simply not connected and nothing is queued for it.
  2. Each room type you sell online.
  3. Each rate plan.

Then use Preview to see exactly what would be sent, without sending it. It is the only way to check a mapping before anything is live, and it stays useful afterwards — "what did we send" is the first question when an OTA and the hotel disagree.
