Step 2: Add the propertyID in AdvanceCM and complete the connection by linking it to an AdvanceCM rental, importing bookings, pushing availability and pushing rates. These steps are described in detail below.

In the Search for providers field, type Tokeet.

Important Considerations:
Property Availability: Your property will be temporarily closed/unbookable on Booking.com until the connection process is completed in AdvanceCM.
Connection Process: Your connection will not function properly unless the steps in AdvanceCM (linking the rental, importing bookings, pushing rates and availability) are fully completed. Please see above for a detailed description.
Updates via AdvanceCM: Once the connection is established, all updates to rates, availability, and restrictions must be sent to Booking.com exclusively through AdvanceCM. Manual entries in the Booking.com Extranet will no longer be possible.
Viewing Rates and Availability: While rates and availability will no longer be updated directly through Booking.com, they will remain visible in the Extranet for monitoring purposes.
Reservations and Modifications: Any reservations, modifications, and cancellations will be re-transmitted through the AdvanceCM dashboard. However, it's important for vacation rental managers to regularly check the Booking.com Extranet to track the status of each booking.
