Go to the Distribution Center - Expedia > Channel Settings > Automatic listing content update > Automatically updated Booking.com listings when content change is identified > Save. This is done on account level!
Note! If step 1 is not completed successfully, you will have sync issues after activating the automatic listing update.
IMPORTANT Notes:
The automatic updates are pushed every 4 hours to the channels. It means your updates should be visible on Expedia within the next 24 hours, depending on the channel's processing time.
In case the update is unsuccessful, you will see an update error in the Expedia Property Settings.
There is no amenity mapped to VALET_PARKING therefore we will always send the NO_VALET_PARKING value to Expedia
When Rental Ninja pushes properties to Expedia - the currency is the same as currency in Rental Ninja. When properties are mapped, the currency from the channel needs to be preserved. It is very important that you select a correct currency when mapping a property. In case the currency of your property does not match the one in Expedia, Rental Ninja will convert the pricing upon each price push. When a booking is received, Rentals United performs a conversion, too. Original booking price is available in the Notes section of the reservation.
Occupancy based pricing must be selected in the Expedia dashboard in case of mapping a property to ensure correct prices sync. In case of pushing a property from Rental Ninja to Expedia, this should be selected automatically.
