Auto Re-pricing is a feature that automatically calculate the cost when you make any changes in the Reservation Details window, e.g. changing dates, number of rooms, product, rate group, etc. It is an efficient tool that allows you to instantly see the price change when you make these changes without any extra clicks.

However sometimes you may also want to lock the price while you make these changes. For example, when you want to make a free upgrade for your VIP guest to another room type and keep the price the same, then you can use this Price Lock to disable the Auto Re-pricing feature temporarily.

First, before you make any changes, click on the green lock to lock the price. Then you can make the changes, which won't trigger any price re-calculation.

Remember to save your changes before you unlock it. Reload the reservation page will unlock it automatically.

You can have this feature always disabled by default: Go to Settings >> Web Booking Setup, toggle on the option "Enable Default Price Lock" under the Miscellaneous tab.

When you booked a reservation that contains multiple rooms (with the same room type), sometimes you may want to split them into multiple single-room reservations. For example, when a guest booked 2 King Rooms under his or her name, one for him/her self, and the other one for a friend. Then the guest wants to split the bill so he/she and the friend can pay for their own room separately.

Then you can split the reservation into 2 single-room reservation for the guest, by clicking on the Split Multi-Room button at the bottom to do that. The system will produce a number of new reservations, each with single-room occupancy, and split the room costs evenly.

Note 1: The system will split the number of guests evenly, but sometimes the number of guests may not be accurate after the split. E.g. if the original reservation has 2 rooms for total 5 guests. After split the number of guests will be 2 on each room. So please double check the number of guests in each reservation and make necessary corrections if needed.

Note 2: If there is Add-on items in the original reservation, the system will keep the add-on items in the original reservation. Please examine the add-on costs and make necessary adjustment.
