Occupied: By clicking on the field, you will be able to access the information of all the rooms that are occupied, obtaining the reservation data of the guests according to the selected date.
Out of Service: Clicking on the field will display the information: Room number, Reason and Period, of the rooms that are Out of Service.
Quote: By clicking on the field, you will be able to access the information of all the rooms that are in quote, obtaining the reservation information of the guests according to the selected date.
The second section Verification of Room Availability will display the results of the parameterized search through a table or grid:
Field | Description |
Room | Displays the room types. |
Inv. | Displays the total inventory for each room type. |
Dates (M,T,W,T,F,S,S) | It will show the query for each date indicated in the previous section. |
Total | Shows the total number of rooms available or occupied or out of service, according to the query. |
The second to last line will show the total number of rooms according to the parameterized search (occupied, available, out of service).
The last line will show the percentage of availability it represents according to the search criteria (occupied, available, out of service).
The lower part indicates that when the total of the room type is between 75% and 89% it will be highlighted in yellow and when it is higher than 90% it will be highlighted in red. This criterion will work the same in both occupied and available room search, so it will be important to observe how the query is being made so that the interpretation is done correctly.
