Introduction
Control Panel is the central dashboard within the Channel Manager where users can manage OTA connections, configure channel credentials, perform room and rate mapping, and access essential logs.
Through the Control Panel, you can search and select OTA channels, input connection details, import rate plans, map internal and OTA rate plans, and verify configuration updates. It serves as the starting point for all integration and mapping activities, ensuring smooth communication between your property system and OTA platforms.
Channel List
When you access the Control Panel menu, you will see the available OTA channels.
In Version 1, the available OTA channels are displayed individually. To access a specific OTA, you can either click the OTA directly or select it from the dropdown list at the top of the panel.
In Version 2, the OTA channels are displayed in the same format, with additional information such as their connection status. The connection status is represented by four different statuses:
| Icon | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | Connected | The OTA is successfully connected and ready to use. |
 | Connecting | The system is currently establishing a connection with the OTA. |
 | Connection Failed | The connection attempt failed. Check the connection details and try again. |
 | Issue | An issue has been detected with the OTA connection. (e.g., unfinished mapping) |
Version 2 also provides a Search bar at the top-right of the panel. Instead of selecting an OTA from the dropdown, simply enter a keyword to display the matching channels.
