Adding Owner Entered Bookings into your Booking Software

If your Property Management software does not allow your owners to enter owner stays, owners can enter those stays through their Operto Teams Owner Dashboard, and Operto Teams can feed those bookings back into your Property Management software.

Important: Outbound iCal feeds are required for this solution.    

Setup Steps

1. Navigate to Setup --> iCal Feeds

2. For each property listed, copy the Owner Entered iCal link.

3. Enter this link into your booking software import iCal field for the same property.

How it works

1. Only Owner Entered bookings are included in the feeds.

2. Each Owner Entered booking in the iCal feed has the text "Owner Entered" appended to the guest name.

3. The booking software will import these bookings onto each property's calendar.

4. These bookings will then show up in the import from your booking software into Operto Teams. Operto Teams will look for the string "Owner Entered" and import that booking as a block instead of a booking.

This feature is currently in place for the following software:
