Understanding the PriceLabs Multi Calendar
The
Multi Calendar page allows you to
view and set pricing customizations and overrides, toggle sync on or off,
perform a manual sync, or save and refresh your listings. Using this page, you can perform most
actions from the Review Prices and Manage Listings page for multiple listings
at once, all from one place!
Read on to learn about the numbered tags in the

- Sync Prices & Last Synced: This toggle shows the current status of the property in the PriceLabs system. If the switch is ON and green, then we will update prices every night. Otherwise, if it's OFF and grayed out then PriceLabs will not change prices on this listing. It also includes the Sync Now button to push your rates to your channel or PMS immediately. Then below the buttons, it gives you an indication of when the listing was last updated and the status of your listing's sync. More on that here.
