All special pricing rules are applied on the rooms base costs as a cumulative charge or discount even in case of multiple rules applied on the same stay dates. This algorithm follows the OpenTravel (OTA) standards, and here is an example of how two special pricing rules are typically applied on the bases costs to obtain the final price:<br/><br/><ul><li>Room-type base cost = 80/night</li><li>Booking for 3 nights</li><li>One Special Price sets a charge of 20/night to obtain a cost of 100/night</li><li>One Last-Minute promotion applies a 10% off</li></ul><br/><strong>Calculation of final price</strong><br/><ul><li>1st night (80 + 20 - 8) = 92</li><li>2nd night (80 + 20 - 8) = 92</li><li>3rd night (80 + 20 - 8) = 92</li><li><u>Final price</u> 92 * 3 = 276</li></ul><br/>With this default calculation method, the 10% off promotion has been applied cumulatively on the room base cost for each night affected.<br/>If the parameter <i>Apply on rooms final cost</i> was enabled, the calculation would be performed with the following method:<br/><ul><li>1st night (80 + 20) = 100</li><li>2nd night (80 + 20) = 100</li><li>3rd night (80 + 20) = 100</li><li><u>Final price before promotion</u> 100 * 3 = 300</li><li><u>Promotion applied on final cost</u> 300 - 10% = 270</li></ul><br/>You should choose the calculation method that best fits your needs. Applying promotions on the final price for specific dates is usually more handy, but you can choose to adopt the default calculation method like for all the other special pricing rules.
