**NOTE:

  • Click ‘Add Room’ if you want to add more rooms for a specific room type
  • You can close specific room/ room type by switching to inactive at the ‘Status’. Room status will change from green to grey color. Grey color means that you have closed the room successfully.
  • By setting up your room type and adding room number on Softinn PMS, you no longer need to do your Room Type setup on Extranet. It will be automatically created to Extranet. This means, when you are newly signed up to Softinn Extranet and PMS, you can setup your property room type on PMS straightaway and it will be synced to your Extranet. However, you need to update the max pax on Softinn Extranet after you have added the new room type.
  • If your hotel has done the renovation or restructuring, which needs a change in the room type that you are selling, you can set inactive for rooms that you no longer use before adding the new room types. So that, the active built unit will not be more than the subscribed plan. 
  • If you want to update the units more than the plan that you subscribe to, you are not allowed to do so. Do reach out to Softinn Account Manager to upgrade to the higher plan.

This guide is applicable to merchants who signed up for both Softinn Extranet and Softinn PMS at the same time for the first time. For merchants who are already subscribed to Softinn Extranet and then decided to use Softinn PMS, please refer to this guide.
