Agent Channels

These include your front desk "MyPMS Front Desk", your website "BookingCenter" and any other online channels you have set up like Expedia and Booking.com. When you choose the Agent from the drop-down list, then you will see all of the Rate Plans allocated to that channel. Therefore, if you choose "All Rates", then you will see a list of all of your rates.

Each Agent Channel displays the Rate Plans allocated to the Room Types in the channel. When you select an Agent Channel to view, then you will see the Rate plans allocated to the Room Types in that channel. If a Room Type/Rate Plan is allocated to more than one channel then it will display in those channels, however any rate changes made will apply to the Rates in all channels. See Allocate Room Types

For Example, 

A QUEEN Room Type with RACKQUEEN Rate Plan is allocated to 3 Channels

: MYPMS  - MyPMS Front Desk

, BC - BookingCente" (Booking Engine)

, BKGDIR- Booking.com

When these Agents are chosen in the "Agent" drop-down list, then the same RACKQUEEN Rate Plan will display under each channel. A change to RACKQUEEN Rate in the Rate Grid will apply to the Rate Plan and therefore update in all three channels.

single Room Type in each Agent. There can be multiple Rate Plans assigned to one Room Type and a Room Type can be allocated to multiple channels. For example, If you wanted to offer the same NSK (non smoking king) Room Type at 3 different rates (i.e., Rack, AAA, and COR), then you would need to the Room Type 3 times each with the separate and corresponding Rate attached. One for the RACK, one for the AAA, and one for a COR rate. This would allow your guest to choose from these 3 rates when booking the NSK rooms. See examples below. See Add Room Type Allocations.
