Stayntouch PMS Three Ways To Sell Day Use Reservations
Stayntouch PMS offers three ways to sell Day Use reservations; however, these will not impact the occupancy percentage that you view on the Availability screen on your dashboard or any of your reports. The report that will reflect an increased occupancy level for two of the three scenarios listed below is the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report.
1. Use Normal Rates With 0 Nights: These reservations WILL NOT count on the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report.
2. Configure A Day Use Rate: Stayntouch PMS will show Day Use rates when doing an inquiry for 0 nights on the RECOMMENDED tab of the Rooms & Rates screen. These reservations WILL reflect on the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report, so you can reference this to get the true occupancy statistics for Day Use rooms.
On the reservation, the DAY USE toggle will be turned ON (see screenshot below). These reservations are calculated as Day Use on the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report.
3. Create Hourly Rates: These reservations can only be created via the Hourly Room Dairy. They will count as Day Use in the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report. From within the hourly rate, you can also configure a period that counts as a nightly reservation—in that the time period will not count as Day Use and will increase the occupancy. These reservations WILL reflect on the Occupancy & Revenue Summary Report, so you can reference this to get the true occupancy statistics for Day Use rooms.
