The Configuration area allows you to view and manage key aspects of your integration setup. Here, you’ll find several sub-sections → Settings, Restrictions, Rate Model, and Booking, each giving you visibility over how your connection to B-Marketplace is structured.
While many fields reflect pre-agreed settings, certain areas may be editable if updates are required. This ensures you can align your integration preferences without needing to start from scratch.
Note: Hover over the ⓘ icon next to any item to read a short explanation of that setting.
Configuration → Settings
The Settings tab under Configuration allows you to review and update the key technical parameters of your integration setup. This section allows users to configure technical details related to the connection, booking behavior, mapping method, and IP access.
Table Reference - Configuration → Settings
| Category | Description |
| Indicates whether your integration/connection is either API Push or API Pull. |

| Set how many days of ARI your platform can receive in each update. |
✨ Tip: These settings should align with your system’s capabilities and business rules. Review carefully before going live. If unsure, contact your technical team or support@bakuun.com.
Configuration → Restrictions
This section defines the specific restriction rules your system supports. Each item reflects whether your system can handle and process that restriction when syncing with Bakuun. These settings are important for ensuring consistency across rate plans, availability, and booking rules.
Note: Use the toggle to mark each item as Yes (supported) or No (not supported) based on your system’s capabilities.
Table Reference - Configuration → Restrictions
| Category | Description |
| Inventory Room Level | Allows pushing inventory (number of rooms available) at the room type level. |
| Release | Minimum number of days before arrival that a room must be booked or after which the unsold inventory is automatically released back to the supplier |
| Minimum Stay Through Rate Plan Level | Minimum Stay Through that must be booked, defined either per room type or per specific rate plan. |
| Maximum Stay Through Rate Plan Level | Maximum Stay Through allowed for booking. Controls longer stays either by room or rate plan. |
| Minimum Stay Arrival Rate Plan Level | Sets the minimum nights required starting from the arrival date, per room or rate plan. |
| Maximum Stay Arrival Rate Plan Level | Sets a limit on how many nights can be booked starting from arrival, typically used for promo control. |
| Close to Arrival Rate Plan Level | Restricts check-in on specific dates (stop sell by arrival), useful during peak or blackout dates. |
| Close to Departure Rate Plan Level | Restricts check-out on certain dates (stop sell by departure), also used for blackout periods. |
| Stop Sales Rate Plan Level | Completely stops selling the room or rate plan for selected dates. No availability shown to buyers. |
| Min Advance Booking Room Level / Rate Plan Level | Requires bookings to be made at least X days in advance. Helps suppliers prepare for arrivals. |
| Max Advance Booking Room Level / Rate Plan Level | Limits how far into the future a booking can be made (e.g., up to 6 months only). |
| Cancellation Policy and Deposit | Indicates whether cancellation terms and deposit rules are pushed and visible via API. |
Configuration → Rate Model
This section states which rate model types are supported by the current connection. Each model outlines how rates are calculated based on occupancy, taxes, and pricing type.
Table Reference - Configuration → Rate Model (API Pull)
| Rate Model Type | Description |
| Extra Guest Rate | Defines the price supplement applied per extra guest beyond the room’s base occupancy. |
| Extra Guest Count | Defines the number of extra guest beyond the room’s base occupancy. |
| Child Age | Defines the age range used to classify a guest as a child for rate and occupancy calculation |
| Child Rate | Defines the price applied to guests identified as children beyond the room’s base occupancy. |
| Child Count | Defines the maximum number of children allowed per room or rate plan based on the property’s configuration. |
| Static Extra Guest and Child Combination | Indicates that the pricing for extra guests and children is fixed, managed directly in the Bakuun Extranet, and not transmitted via API. |
| Dynamic Extra Guest and Child Combination | Indicates that the pricing for extra guests and children is dynamically managed and pushed via API based on the rate configuration. |
| Length of Stay | Dynamic rate that changes according to how many nights are booked (e.g., discount for longer stays). |
| FPLOS | Close to Arrival By Length of Stay. Stay restriction, also known as the Full Pattern Length of Stay (FPLOS), where no arrivals are allowed for the length of stay selected. |
| Rate Hurdles | Rate hurdles are based on an entire length of stay, which is why FPLOS is the ideal method of communicating them. RateDock assesses the availability of a rate by comparing the total price for a length of stay to the hurdles for the same length of stay. If the pricing exceeds the total hurdle, it is available. If the total pricing falls below the total hurdle, it is considered unavailable. This method allows individual dates that fall below a hurdle to still be available if they are part of a stay that exceeds the overall hurdle. |
✨ Tips:
Supported rate models are indicated as Yes or No per connection.
Rate models impact ARI push/pull compatibility with connected systems.
