For Booking.com and Airbnb the Price imported in Smoobu - within a booking's Details section - includes the portal's commissions and cleaning fee; but excludes Tourist Tax.
Price amount is also the figure which will be considered in your Smoobu Statistics section

Hi Team,
Whilst I appreciate the constant evolution - I would say this feature does not help.
What I need to see here is the Total Price paid by the Guest - this would be the Rental Fee + Cleaning Fee or what I call the "Gross Price". This is because I base my calculations and payment to my investors based on this Gross Price.
In addition, tools like Wishbox will use this new price and when sending booking confirmations to the guest which means they see a lower price and they will question why the price is like this.
I think the new pricing may be helpful in certain circumstances - but needs to be its own section elsewhere and the main Price should show the "Gross Price" only.
Again I appreciate the constant evolution of the Smoobu tool - but this really needs to change else we will have to make manual changes to all bookings.
Many Thanks
Dear Smoobu Team,
We user the API to retrieve bookings.
We Appreciate your goodwill to try to satisfy all customers.
However, in this case, you broke a working functionality, you changed the specs of how things were already working consistently.
While we accept the right of other PM to make calculations based on the "gross-price", we take commisions based on the "Payout Price", how much did Airbnb/others deposited into the bank account.
So I see a few options:
1) Roll back the change and make the UI and the API to report correct payout price as the important price.
2) show (UI), and allow exporting "gross Price" so everyone is happy
3) Offer "Payout price" in UI and allow exporting and make available through API
4) Offer "Commission" in API, so I can make the math using the API.
Notewothy is: Smoobu as a PMS should make accounting and bank reconciliation possible. with your change you broke that functionality. Please allow exporting and API access to payout price.
Thanks.
