When setting up your HRS account, there is a setting that you specify regarding your Breakfast options for each year that you are marketed on HRS.  The breakfast options selected in HRS must be compatible with the settings that you choose in myallocator.  Otherwise, you will receive the following error: "Your breakfast setting on the channel doesn't match the breakfast setting in the channel manager".

Update the Breakfast settings in myallocator

  2. In the Breakfast settings, select 'Included in bed/room price'
  3. Click on Update

Update the Channel-Specific Options - HRS

For each rate plan that is not "Disabled" you must specify the Board and/or Breakfast Type that is available.

Note: It is possible to set Breakfast/Board to "Exclusive" for any rate plan, even if your previous setting was chosen as "Included". This allows you to set different Breakfast options for various Rate Plans that you have set.
