Setup

Venere: To determine your property code, login to your venere.com account, near the top left of the screen you will see an ID number and the name of your property. The ID number is your property code.

To determine your room codes, login to your venere.com account and change to the Rates and Availability page. Select the view one room at a time option. Select each of your rooms one at a time, the room code appears after you change the displayed room. Examine the URL in your browser while viewing each room. It starts with "https://secure.venere.com/cgi/property/index.php" and further along you will find an item room_id=. The number after roomid= is the room code.

Beds24.com: Sign into your Beds24.com account and go to the Synchroniser. Select Verere.com and change it to enabled, click Save. Enter your username, password and property and room codes in the fields and enable the link for each room. Click Save again to save your changes. Rates

The rate exported for each night will be the best (lowest) rate found on each night. If no valid price is found for a one night stay the system will search for prices for longer stays and set the Venere "minimum stay" field accordingly. The prices used are the synchroniser export price in any valid rate with Venere.com enabled for export and the daily price table. If no valid price is found the date will be exported as unavailable. Bookings

Bookings

To import your bookings you must set the property notification email from Venere to be sent to the following personal email address: book.7aXXXX@api.beds24.com where XXXX is your account number which you will find on the SETTINGS >> ACCOUNT menu.

For example if you are account number 999 your email address would be book.7a999@api.beds24.com

The best way to do this is have the email sent from Venere to you and create a rule or filter in your email system to auto forward these emails to beds24.

Beds24.com will attempt to identify the room being booked by comparing the room name set in Beds24 to the room name sent by Venere in the booking notification email. Please ensure the names match as closely as possible so new bookings are assigned to the correct rooms.
