Use this page to view a hotel's inventory for a given date range. You can filter the information by date and by Room Type. The only action you can perform on this page is to allow or disallow Primary Inventory to be sold on a given night. If you make any changes, be sure to click the Save button.
The Setup a Primary SmartAlert link takes you to the SmartAlert page where you can add, edit, or remove SmartAlerts in the hotel library.
For All Rooms:
Disable Primary Inventory Updates. For ARI only, disallows primary inventory updates.
Primary. The total number of Primary rooms available across all Room Types. Non-zero values are shaded in a light-orange color.
Current Blocks. The total number of contracted rooms across all events and Room Types.
Pickup. The total number of sold rooms across all Room Types. Click the % icon to show the Pickup percentage line.
Pickup %. The ratio between Pickup and Available that defines how many rooms have been sold across all Room Types. It cannot be calculated until rooms are assigned. This line is shown if the % icon is clicked in the Pickup line. Once open, the line can be hidden by clicking the X in the Pickup % line.
Available. Number of remaining unsold Primary, Free-Sell and Assigned rooms across all events. This cell is shaded red if all event inventory and Primary Inventory are sold-out. This cell is shaded orange if Assigned and Free-Sell inventory is sold-out but Primary Inventory is available. It is also possible for this value to be a negative number due to reservations transferring automatically from a PMS/CRS if applicable.
Click on a specific Room Type to see its information.
Primary. Number of Primary rooms entered for all events. Any non-zero value is outlined in light-orange. (This value will be automatically updated when the ARI interface is in use. See ARI note below for details.).
TIP: The number of rooms allocated can be set below the number of rooms picked up. This is especially useful when trying to reduce the number of booked rooms under a room type and prevent future rooms being sold.
Primary Available. Number of Primary rooms that are available for all events (unsold from the Primary row value). Any non-zero value is outlined in light-orange.
Rate. The rate associated with the Primary Inventory. (This value will be automatically updated when the ARI interface is in use. See ARI note below for details.)
Open. Checking the box allows Primary Inventory to be sold on the given night. Unchecking the box does not allow any Primary Inventory selling. This does not affect the Assigned or Free-Sell inventory within each event. (This value will be automatically updated when the ARI interface is in use. See ARI note below for details.)
Current Blocks. Total number of current blocks allocated across all events for the Room Type.
Pickup. Number of reserved rooms in the Room Type across all events, including any sold Assigned, Free-Sell, or Primary Inventory. Click the % icon to show the Pickup percentage line.
Pickup %. Ratio between Pickup and Available that defines how many rooms have been sold. This value can be greater than 100% if Primary Inventory is active. This line is shown if the % icon is clicked in the Pickup line. Once open, the line can be hidden by clicking the X in the Pickup % line.
Available. Number of remaining unsold Assigned and Free-Sell rooms in the Room Type across all events. The Available value is shaded red if all assigned and Free-Sell inventory is sold-out. It is also possible for this value to be a negative number due to reservations transferring automatically from a PMS/CRS if applicable.
Note on Update Messages for ARI: Any updates which are manually done on Primary Inventory when a property has been enabled with the ARI integration could be overridden by an update message from an external system unless the room type or the day is disabled for ARI updates.
When the ARI interface is in use, several additional fields will appear on this page.
