Integrating CiiRUS with Vrbo is designed to streamline property management and bookings. However, you may encounter synchronization issues related to rates, fees, or listing details. Below is a comprehensive guide to troubleshooting these common problems.
Common Issues and Their Solutions
1. Syncing Delays for Listings
If your Vrbo listing is marked as incomplete due to missing pricing information, even after assigning a rate set in CiiRUS, it could be due to a syncing delay. To address this:
Double-check that all required property details are completed in the CiiRUS system.
Wait for a short period to ensure the information syncs between CiiRUS and Vrbo. In some cases, this delay resolves itself over time.
If the issue persists beyond 72 hours and after a complete configuration check, contact CiiRUS support — see How to get support.
2. Minimum Night Stays and Fees Not Transferring
If minimum night stays or other fees are not reflecting correctly on Vrbo, the issue may stem from the integration settings within CiiRUS. Here's how to resolve this:
Navigate to Owners & Listings → Listings → Listing Assistant → Create or Edit Rates → Minimum Stay and set the value in the Min Nights column.
Verify and adjust the minimum night stay settings and any applicable fees.
Save the changes to ensure the correct information is pushed to Vrbo.
3. Rate Discrepancies Between CiiRUS and Vrbo
Rates displayed on Vrbo may differ from those set in CiiRUS for the following reasons:
The assigned rate set for the Vrbo channel may differ from the default or other rate sets used for direct bookings or other channels.
A Multiplication Factor applied in the Vrbo channel will cause rates to appear higher than base rates in CiiRUS. Verify and adjust this in the Multiplication Factor column at Connections → Channel Manager → Vrbo. See How to mark up rates for the channels for more detail.
To manage and verify all rates being pushed to Vrbo, go to Connections → Channel Manager → Vrbo in your CiiRUS dashboard. Review the rate sets assigned to each unit and make necessary adjustments.
Additional Recommendations
Ensure all your property details, rates, and settings are properly configured in CiiRUS before initiating synchronization with Vrbo.
If issues persist despite these troubleshooting steps, contact CiiRUS Customer Care — see How to get support.
