Services & Prices - General - Data Templates
If you want to maintain your prices in the CST PRO in the future, we recommend that you create data templates (template for prices & restrictions). If you use an interface to your hotel software with the transfer of prices & restrictions and thus control the prices within your hotel software, you can skip this point.
Rate calendar
The structure of the installment calendar can be found here:
Aufbau des Ratenkalenders
To store the prices and restrictions in the installment calendar, you have the following options:
You store the already created data template in the desired time period - Datenvorlage
You store the inheritance template that has already been created - Vererbungen
You create your seasonal times and maintain the prices manually via the sidebar - Manuelle Datenpflege
