1. Add properties

Add properties via PMS integrations, upload list via excel or add manually

  • Integration with your PMS 

Click your Property Management System in order to see how you can upload your properties to the Dionn platform:

If you work with Avantio, Icnea, Rentals United, Smoobu, Guesty, BookingSinc, Vreasy, Tokeet or Hostaway you can load the properties in 2 minutes.

  • Excel import

If you work with a lot of properties and you do not work with any of these PMS’, we recommend you follow this method. Besides creating the properties you will also be able to add an iCal-link to integrate the calendars 

  • Manual Creation

Through our easy to use interface, you can quickly create a new property manually

Find out more in the article Create properties

 


2. Add reservation or recurrent dates

 

Once your properties are set and the iCal places (in case your PMS is not integrated) all your reservation will be displayed in Reservation tab.

You can also add reservations manually by selecting "Manage reservation/Add reservation".

For each reservation Doinn can automatically create a service request. This can be set based on the reservation - eg. at checkout - or based on a specific recurrence - eg. every Monday at 15.00 - (see point 5 Create automation).
