Set Grades and Priorities

Setting Grades:
Levels in the Grades tab are evaluated and applied based on precedence (Top to Bottom). And this mainly applies to the levels set under Advance Booking and Previous Stay. The individual grades should be whole numbers and cannot exceed 100.
Setting Priorities:
The sum of the priorities should be exactly equal to 100. Users can set preferences up to any percentage for the categories, including 0, with the total being 100.
Calculation:
The applicable grade and the corresponding priority in percentage are multiplied. The sum of the results becomes the Priority Grade, which is used to sort the Waitlist and Inquiry records in descending order.
If a priority, grade, or both get updated, the Priority Grade is recalculated, and the Waitlist and Inquiry records are sorted accordingly.
Refer to the following table to fill in the details in the Grades tab:
