Information
Close Rate prevents use of the selected Rate Type without closing availability of the Category for House Use reservations.
Close Rate only changes the availability of the selected Rate Type.
Stop Sell sets availability to '0' for the Category and Rate Type selected and can be used to close inventory for any connected channel including House Use.
An Occupancy benchmark can be set to only close the Rate Type if the Occupancy is at the entered value.
The Occupancy Calculation Rule for the property will be used to determine the occupancy.
Close Rate can only be used for House Use and will not apply to connected channels.
RMS will use the newest record when more than one exists for the same date and Restriction Type.
Category, Reservation and Rate are default System Labels that can be customised.
Users will require Security Profile access to use this feature.
