Connection outcome
What to prepare before starting
List the properties you want to link and their names in each system. If you manage several units in the same building, add a reference that distinguishes them. Resolving this mapping before connecting helps prevent bookings being assigned to the wrong property.
-
Authorised access to the relevant account in each service.
-
A property list and the person responsible for the connection.
-
An inventory of calendars or other connections already active for those units.
-
A booking you can review to check the result without creating fictional submissions.
The process documented by AvaiBook
The official entry starts in AvaiBookās Integrations and Marketplace. It then describes selecting properties and using a connection credential in iButlersā Advanced Management, with AvaiBook selected as the PMS. Consult that entry during setup: never share the credential in screenshots, public links or open messages.
Check the account before saving
Before saving, check that you have selected the correct account and property. If an option in the guide is missing, ask the relevant serviceās support to confirm it; do not substitute another credential or try random permissions.
How to check property mapping
Compare each accommodation unit
Compare the name and reference of each unit in both services.
Review a known booking
Review a known booking: property, dates, reference and status.
Check the fields
Determine which fields are imported and which must be completed during check-in.
Confirm the changes
Confirm how the connection handles amendments and cancellations. Do not assume an undocumented synchronisation frequency or direction.
Review previous connections
Check whether an older calendar still supplies the same booking. Before changing it, check the effect on upcoming arrivals.
If a booking does not appear where expected
Record the time of the check, the source service and the affected property. First review unit mapping and connection status. When asking for help, describe the symptom and use an appropriate support channel; avoid attaching identity documents or access credentials.
Booking synchronisation does not replace checking guest details and does not, by itself, confirm that a submission to the authorities has been completed. Check each stage of your arrival process.
