A Guide to Out Of Order (OOO), Out Of Service (OOS), & Out Of Inventory (OOI) Rooms

Stayntouch PMS handles Out of Order (OOO), Out of Service (OOS), and Out Of Inventory (OOI) rooms in different ways. See details below:

OOO

Stayntouch PMS deducts OOO rooms from the property's room availability.
OOO rooms do not show up on the room assignment screen.
OOO rooms do not affect the property's occupancy calculations.
OCC % in Stayntouch PMS is calculated by using [(occupied rooms / total hotel room count) x 100]—which does not take into consideration OOO rooms
OOO rooms do affect the property's REVPAR calculations.
- REVPAR in Stayntouch PMS is calculated using the formula (total room revenue / available rooms)—which is (total number of rooms - OOO rooms)
OOO rooms will display with a gray room number on the Room Diary page.

OOS

Stayntouch PMS does NOT deduct OOS rooms from the property's room availability.
OOS rooms will display for selection on the room assignment screen.
OOS rooms do not affect the property's occupancy or REVPAR calculations (or any other statistics).
OOS rooms will display with a gray room number on the Room Diary page.

OOI

Rooms placed into Out Of Inventory (OOI) status will remove them from the hotel’s inventory or disable them permanently or for a period of time.
When creating reservations, Stayntouch PMS will exclude OOI rooms from room selection.
