About using CSV files for default configurations

Use CSV files to efficiently set up default room type configurations across multiple properties with Multi-Property. Export your current default settings to a CSV file, update the defaults in a spreadsheet editor, then import the file back to set new defaults for multiple room types at once. These new default settings will only apply when you create new room rates.

Set up default configurations

💡 Note: New default configurations only apply to room rates you create in the future. Existing room rates keep their current settings.

To set up new default room type configurations:

  1. Go to Multi-Property > Admin.

  2. Click on the Export/Import tab.

  3. Click Download CSV to export your current default configurations.

  4. Open the CSV file and update the default settings.

  5. Return to the Export/Import tab.

  6. Click Upload to import your new default settings.

CSV file format

Your CSV file must keep the same structure and column order. Do not edit or delete the column headings in the first row.

The CSV includes these columns:

  • ROOM_TYPE_UUID — identifies the room type. Do not modify this.

  • PROPERTY_NAME — your property name.

  • ROOM_TYPE_NAME — name of the room type.

  • INCLUDED_OCCUPANCY — must be numbers only.

  • FULL_RATE — must be numbers only and cannot be empty.

  • EXTRA_ADULT_RATE — must be numbers only.

  • EXTRA_CHILD_RATE — must be numbers only.

  • SINGLE_GUEST_DISCOUNT_AMOUNT — must be numbers only.

  • SINGLE_GUEST_DISCOUNT_TYPE — must be empty or contain "amount" or "percentage".

  • CONNECTIVITY_ROOM_TYPE_CODE — contains mapping codes for your connected systems (such as your property management system).

⚠️ If you change mapping codes, make sure they match between your channel manager and connected systems to avoid synchronisation issues.
