Consistent identities across your distribution.
Plan hotel mapping for bedbanks and wholesalers with stable IDs, supplier-specific status, partner code crosswalks and controlled data releases.
A bedbank or wholesaler needs to connect upstream supplier codes with the property identities distributed to its customers. A controlled crosswalk preserves each source code and records how an update changes the relationships delivered to downstream partners.
Stable partner references
Keep a persistent property identity so a content refresh does not unnecessarily change a customer's references.
Supplier-specific status
Suspend a source relationship when evidence warrants it without treating every other supplier's profile as inactive.
Traceable code crosswalks
Record master IDs, upstream source codes and permitted partner mappings with effective dates and source evidence.
Controlled change delivery
Separate additions, changes and withdrawals and publish them through an agreed versioned contract.
Define the supplier sources, existing master IDs, review owners and success measures before connecting a production catalog.

Explore all FAQsWhat is reverse hotel mapping?
Reverse mapping looks up the supplier codes associated with a master property ID. It should return the relevant supplier relationships and their status, rather than assume that every relationship is currently distributable.
Can one supplier's closure disable all distribution?
A supplier profile becoming inactive does not by itself prove the property is closed. Keep supplier status separate and use additional evidence before changing the master property's status.
Should customers receive every internal mapping change?
Define a publication contract. Partners should receive relevant approved changes, with enough version and reason information to update their records consistently.
