How do I move my bookings from Excel or another system?

Future bookings are imported from a spreadsheet or export file, channels are reconnected, and guest history is moved as far as you have it. For one property this usually takes a few days.

The priority is future bookings with correct dates, rooms and payment status. Older history is useful but not needed for day one.

During the switch it is worth watching both calendars for a few days until you are sure every new booking lands in the new system.
