Disable a channel connection

To disable a channel connection:

  2. Find the channel

  3. Click on it and select Configure

  4. Go to Channels Setting tab

  5. Click the Disable connection to [channel name] button

Important notes:

  • Disabling a channel stops inventory updates from being sent from Little Hotelier to the channel for all channel rates

  • Disabling the channel will not send a stop sell or delete the rates in the channel's extranet (except for Airbnb)

  • Going forward you will need to manually manage or delete your rates directly in your channel's extranet. Contact the channel directly for help managing your rates and property listing

  3. Click on the Rooms & Rates tab

  4. Click on the channel rate

  5. Select Disconnect from channel
