Set up the Stop Sale on a specific room typology, by leaving availability of your rooms unchanged!
---
👉 For example: If you need to temporary close one of your room types and you already put 7 rooms available, you can set the room in Stop Sale. Once the problem has been fixed you can open again the room with the availabilities you already put in it.
👉 Or: You want to open a rate plan (e.g. not refundable rate) for a specific period and keep closed another one (e.g. standard rate)

To set the Stop sale on Octorate, access the [Calendar]

It's easy, isn't it? 😊

⚠️ WARNING: STOP SALE and EXPEDIA ⚠️
Remember that with Expedia it is not possible to close a single occupancy rate to sell (ex. I have 5 occupancy levels butI only wish to close the room for 2 people)!
However, you can decide to activate the Stop Sale on specific rate plans (NR, standard, RO BB ecc) by making sure that you activate the Stop Sale on each occupancy level, if applicable.
⚠️ WARNING: STOP SALE and BOOKING.COM ⚠️
If you wish to close an occupancy level on Booking.com, you will have to set the price of that rate to 0, without activating the Stop Sale.
Exemple: you wish to stop selling the single use of a double room,
you’ll have to set the price of that occupancy level to 0.
The mere activation of the Stop Sale on the rate will not work. Set the price to 0.
Did you apply a stop sale by mistake and you want to remove it?
