CONSORTIA RATE LOADING STEPS (SYNXIS CRS) Hotel responsibilities Consortia required rates names General rate plan set up Please note that this document contains general recommendations for hotels using the SynXis CRS. It does not include any customized set - ups or procedures a specific hotel/group might have in place. Building rate plans for each confirmed Consortia is the sole responsibility of each hotel We offer automatic rate mapping to the GDS for the main Consortia rates, which are selected via the Consortia Services when the hotel has built a rate plan correctly as described in this document and with correct rate name as per slide 3. Net rates, promotional rates, 2 nd tier rates completed within an RFP, like AMEX GBT Value Rate, etc. still requires the standard rate form to be sent to SynXis rate request desk. Please build the rate plans for all your Consortia directly when you get the acceptance notification via Lanyon to ensure the automatic mapping can take place. From beginning of Q4 each year you may also pre - load rates for any Consortia that you have submitted a bid to, even if you are not accepted yet. For additional trainings about rate set up in the SynXis CRS, please refer to the Sabre Hospitality University (SHU). If you do not have access to the SHU please contact your Business Development/ Account Manager.

It allows you to better review your consortia booking reports and to ensure correct rate mapping. • Type = Negotiated (if built as a public rate, we cannot map it to the GDS!) • Rate Code & Rate Name = Consortia rate name should always be as indicated in the Rate loading instructions attached under each RFPs sign up page in Lanyon (see full list on slide 3). • PMS Code = depends on your hotels set up • Class = Negotiated • Rate Attributes = remember to check of all relevant boxes, i.e.: taxes, breakfast etc. • Commissionable (always percent) = Consortia require 10% commission unless anything else been stated within the RFP. For example, CWT Business Rates are to be loaded with 0% commission. Step 1: Setup → Rates → Rate Configuration → Edit Daily Rate → Detail Page confidential | ©2022 Sabre GLBL Inc.
