How can I reconnect individual listings to sales channels?

Before performing this step, you need to reconnect the listings and define what the main ID will be maintained for the location (building) group. The other existing listings must be closed to avoid new reservations.

If the reservations already exist in the listings of the sales platforms, the support of the channels will be required to reallocate the reservations for the new listings.

For Airbnb listings, the connection is usually made individually even with a location structure, so in this case, just connect with the previous listings.
