Hi,
I would like to notify my cleaning lady if a canncelation occurs and the check-in Date is within 3 days.
Canncelations that occur to bookings with check-in dates in the far future should not trigger an email.

Is that possible ?
thanks

Do you mean you want it to trigger if cancellation is 3 or less days but not if it is 4 or more days to checkin?

This can be done with two auto actions.

Use the first one to trigger on the booking if it is NOT cancelled 3 days or less before checkin. For example add a booking info item or set the status code to a specific number.

Use the second one to trigger if the booking has the status cancelled 3 days or less before checkin but only if it contains the element added by the first auto action.

Thanks. Seems to work. But you actually need three AutoActions.The Third one is neccesary to add the InfoCode to Lastminute Bookings.

Auto Action 1: ADD INFOCODE
Trigger: Check-IN
Trigger Time: -3 days
Time Frame: 3 days
Satus: Not Cancelled
--> ADD INFOCODE: 3DAYBOOKING

Auto Action2: SEND EMAIL
Trigger: Booking
Trigger Time: Immediatly
Time Frame: 365 days
Status: Cannceled
InfoCode: 3DAYBOOKING
---> SEND EMAIL

Auto Action3: ADDINFOCODE TO LASTMINUTE BOOKINGS
Trigger: Booking
Trigger Time: Immediatly
Status: Not Cancelled
Time Between Booking and Check-In: 0-3 days
--> ADD INFOCODE: 3DAYBOOKING

Are you sure you need the third auto action?

The first one should add the info code any time between 3 and 0 days before checkin as soon as the booking is made
