Why Aren't My Bookings Syncing?

Troubleshoot booking sync failures between your PMS and AXP including missing bookings and sync delays.

Updated today

Summary: If bookings aren't syncing from your PMS to AXP, check the integration connection status, verify your PMS credentials, and review the sync logs for specific error messages.

Booking synchronisation between your Property Management System (PMS) and the Alliants Experience Platform (AXP) keeps reservation data current. If bookings aren't appearing or updating, this article helps you diagnose and resolve common sync issues.

Troubleshooting Steps

Review Sync Logs

  1. Go to [Your PMS] β†’ Sync Logs

  2. Look for recent error messages or failed sync attempts

  3. Common errors include authentication failures, timeout errors, and data format mismatches

  4. Note the timestamp and error details for troubleshooting

Verify PMS Configuration

  1. Confirm the API credentials didn't get changed recently

  2. Ensure the PMS user account has sufficient permissions to share reservation data

  3. Check that the correct property/hotel is mapped in the integration settings

Check for Data Issues

  1. Verify the booking exists in your PMS with the correct dates and status

  2. Ensure the booking hasn't been cancelled or archived in the PMS

  3. Check that required fields (guest name, dates, room type) are populated

Frequently Asked Questions

How often do bookings sync?

Sync frequency depends on your PMS integration type. Most integrations sync in near real-time (within minutes), while some batch-sync at scheduled intervals. Check your integration settings for the specific sync schedule.

Can I manually trigger a sync?

Yes, most PMS integrations include a manual sync option. Go to your PMS and "resync with external services"

What if only some bookings are missing?

If only specific bookings aren't syncing, the issue is likely with those individual reservations. Check that the affected bookings have all required fields filled in your PMS and that they fall within the configured sync date range.
