Stayntouch PMS IDeaS G3
IDeaS G3 is a Revenue Management System (RMS) that provides Stayntouch PMS daily rate value recommendations (also known as decision files).
IDeaS will send an email to onboarding@stayntouch.com when they have a new hotel that needs to have an integration set up.
The way this works is as follows:
- Stayntouch PMS sends real-time messages to IDeaS G3 for reservations, groups, and inventory.
- Every 4 hours, there is an "IDP" (intraday processing) message sent.
- This message is an inventory and summary for the last 45 days and next 365 days.
- This is sent every 4 hours after End of Day.
- IDeaS G3 then produces daily rate of the day recommendations along with Minimum Length of Stay for BAR and other rates.
- IDeaS G3 sends these messages to Stayntouch PMS for processing.
The IDeaS G3 integration also supports Optix: https://ideas.com/ideas-optix-revenue-intelligence/
