Automatic availability settings - This is what happens when a booking arrives in Channex, should Channex increase or decrease availability automatically or not
New Booking - When a new booking comes should Channex reduce availability (Recommended ON)

Inventory Days
This setting controls how many days your inventory will hold. Default is 500 but we can go up to 730 days.
Min Stay Settings
This setting will simplify the user experience when you connect a OTA channel. Right now most OTA only support 1 Min stay and you select which one you send. If you set here at the property level then it removes this choice and makes less setting problems and bookings for less nights than expected.
Cut Off Time
You can set a time to stop bookings being made for the current night. This is useful for small properties where they don't want last minute bookings in the evening. Once this time hits we change availability to 0 and it cannot be changed unless you turn off the setting.
