Information
Closed to Departure is a restriction that allows reservations to stay in house on the selected dates without allowing departure on that date.
Closed to Departure prevents the Reservation Depart Date being set to the selected date and allows reservations to stay or arrive on that date.
The ability to use a Closed to Departure with a connected channel is dependent on the Channel.
An Occupancy benchmark can be set to only apply the Closed to Departure restriction if the Occupancy is at the entered value.
The Occupancy Calculation Rule for the property will be used to determine the occupancy.
Closed to Arrival is a restriction that allows reservations to stay in house on the selected dates without allowing arrivals on that date.
Soft Close is a Length of Stay Restriction that determines the minimum reservation period using all reservation stay dates.
Minimum Length of Stay on Arrival (MLOS) determines the minimum reservation period based on the selected Arrive Date for the reservation.
Stop Sell close availability and prevent reservations being made for the selected dates.
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.
