Reservations

Availability Room Availability Grand Totals
The way totals and occupancy are referenced has been clarified.  The basic availability formula is Available Rooms (first line) Less Group Blocks Not Picked Up (third line) = Total.

  • Available Rooms (formerly Booked Totals) include only actual reservations made by guests and group members without regard to those committed/allocated.
  • Occupancy% (formerly Booked Occupancy%) indicates the occupancy percentage of actual reservations.
  • Less Group Blocks Not Picked Up has been added and indicates the number of allocated room blocks not yet reserved by group members.  When there are no group blocks to be picked up, this row is not displayed leaving only four rows of totals data.
  • Available Rooms Totals (formerly Committed Totals) include room blocks that are allocated but not yet specifically reserved by group members.
  • Occupancy% Total (formerly Committed Occupancy%) indicates the occupancy percentage of the actual reservations plus group blocks.

IRM.Net

Masters

Owners | Timeshare | Configuration | General Tab | Timeshare Owners Only (No Whole Owners) Switch 416-49
When checked, the property is designated as a timeshare property only.  No whole owners exist in the system.  The room information and contract dates on the Owner Detail tab are not available.
Owners | Timeshare | Configuration | Weeks Tab | Password for Override of Room Type/Room Number When Adding Weeks _______
When blank, the Room Type drop-down on the Week Maintenance screen cannot be overridden when changing a week. 

When Allow Owners to Book into Room Types Not Contractually Owned (Switch 415-37) is checked (owners can use a different room type than specified in the contract), create a password to allow the Room Type selection on the Week Maintenance screen to be changed and saved.

New ~ NoteAllow Owners to Book into Room Types Not Contractually Owned (Switch 415-37) must be checked in order for the system to prompt when the room type is changed.
Allow Owners to Book into Room Types Not Contractually Owned (415-37)
When checked, "If Master Room Number is Owned, Allow Owner to Book Reservations into Sub-units" is disabled, and "...create a bonus week for the related sub-unit" is enabled.  When checked, timeshare owners can reserve room types and room numbers not specified in the owner's contract.  For example, George owns a 2BR week.  Check the box to allow George to make a reservation for a 1BR week instead.

New ~ Note:  When Password for Override of Room Type/Room Number When Adding Weeks contains a password, the password must first be entered correctly before booking outside of contractually owned room type/number is allowed.
Password for Override if Reservation is Booked Outside of Period Owned
When "Restrict Owner Use Based on the Owners Balance Due (Switch 416-44)" is checked and "Restrict Owner Access to Use Week if Balance Due is Greater Than...(Amount)" is set, enter a password to allow the owner to make a reservation outside of contract owned period.  The system prompts for a password when the dates or week entered does not fall within the period/season owned or dates or week is in a restricted date period when the period/season has been configure to restrict use of certain dates.


New ~ In the Password prompt above, the owner contract is for an annual 2B during Period=Summer (Weeks 22-34).  When Week 1 is selected, the system prompts for the password and displays the contracted weeks to make selection easier.

When no password is set, owners cannot make reservations for any dates except for the contracted week owned, and only when the balance due is less than the amount set in "Restrict Owner Access to Use Week if Balance Due is Greater Than...(Amount)".
