Display Rooms for Reservations

When users assign rooms to reservations from any of the mentioned screens, the order in which the rooms must be assigned is determined by the RC value of a room, that is, the rooms are displayed in the ascending order of RC values.

Sample Scenario

Let us consider the following rack order and RC values for rooms created for the NKX room type in the property.

Room Number

Rack Order

Rotation Counter (Dollar Amount)

600

83

382

602

85

376

604

87

393

607

90

377

When users create a reservation using the NKX room type, the Room Assignment tab of the Book a Reservation screen will display the rooms based on the ascending order of the RC value of rooms, that is, the rooms created for the NKX room type will be displayed in the following order: 602, 607, 600, 604 and so on.

When the housekeeping condition of the room is not suitable for check-in, the room will not be displayed for selection.

When users proceed to book a reservation without assigning a room, the rooms will be displayed in the same order of assignment in the Other Matching Rooms section of the reservation.

When a room is assigned to the reservation during date roll, or from the following screens, the room, 602, will be assigned, since room 602 has the lowest rack order and RC value:

  • Batch Operations  Check-In  Assign Rooms

  • Tape Chart Assign Rooms

This order of room assignment is applied when users upgrade the room type of a reservation to NKX from the Recommended Upgrades section or perform a scheduled room move for a reservation booked using a different room type to NKX room type.
