How to Set Up Discounts in mr.alfred

The Discounts submodule in the Revenue module allows you to configure automatic price reductions based on:

• Stay length
• Booking dates
• Booking creation windows
• Channel-specific promotions

These discounts are ideal for applying weekly/monthly stay incentives or early-bird and last-minute offers.

🧭 Accessing the Discounts Submodule

1. Go to: Revenue → Discounts
2. Use the top filters to search existing discounts by:
   • Keyword
   • Property
   • Date range (stay or creation)
   • Channel
   • Status (Enabled / Disabled)

➕ Creating a New Discount

1. Click “+ Add Discount”
2. Fill out the discount details:

🔹 Required Fields:

• Properties – Select one or more properties
• Type – Select discount logic: Long Stay, Weekly, etc.
• Name – Label your discount clearly (e.g. “Weekly Winter Offer”)
• Booking Dates Between – Stay date range the discount applies to
• Booking Created Between – Reservation creation window
• Minimum Stay / Maximum Stay – Stay duration range
• Discount (%) – Total discount applied to eligible bookings
• Apply On – Select which OTA channels this applies to
• Status – Enable or disable the rule

Optional:

• Description – Add internal notes or logic explanation

🔄 An individual discount will be created for each selected property.

🧠 How It Works

• The system checks if all criteria match (stay length, booking window, channel)
• If the booking fits the rule, the discount is applied automatically
• Discount is calculated on the final price before taxes/fees

⚠️ Note: Discounts configured here do not sync with OTAs. They only apply to direct bookings via the booking engine or internal reservation creation.

✅ Tip: Use different rules for each season or target OTA if needed
