Collect
For Hotel Collect bookings, you will need to collect full payment from the customer. If there have
been any changes to the length of stay or a cancellation or no-show, you may request a reconciliation
through the Reconcilable Reservations page - please adhere to the reconciliation window listed in
Expedia Partner Central for your hotel. Then you will pay Expedia compensation using your chosen
method of payment, upon receipt of invoice within the Invoices and Credits page shown below. Both
of these pages are found within the Accounting menu.
This is the total

Previous Venere Reservations:
From the date of conversion to Expedia Traveler Preference, all of your Expedia Collect and Hotel Collect
bookings will be managed in the Expedia Hotel Extranet. However, past reservations made on Venere will
remain in the old Venere extranet, up until the last reservation has stayed and payment has been made.
You will therefore need to continue to use the Venere system to complete the following activities:
View and manage pre-ETP-conversion bookings on the Reservations tab:
