Reviewing Group Projected and Blocked Availability

The sales representative and the revenue manager can use the Property screen, Group Projected/Blocked view to gain a better understanding of what is projected or blocked for each quote for the property across the time period.

The Group Projected/Blocked view contains a Property form, a Date form, and two read-only lists. A Dates/Notes and a Go to Diary button are available for the Total Group Availability list. See Reviewing Total Group Availability for more information on these buttons.

The information displayed on the view includes:

• Quote Name
• Quote Status
• Sales Manager
• Event Manager
• Blocked and projected values for each day in the date range
• Total blocked and projected values for the date range

The date fields in the various sections of the view interact in the following ways:

• In the Date form, when you complete the Date field and click Search, the first dates in the lists below change to match the Date field value in the form.
• In the Group Projected / Blocked list, when you run a query with a date, or click the navigation arrow buttons, the dates in the Total Group Availability list below changes to match the dates in the Group Projected / Blocked list.
• In the Total Group Availability list, when you change the dates either by querying or by clicking the navigation arrow buttons, the dates in the Total Availability list do not change to match.

The Total Group Availability list available from these screens is identical to the list that appears in the Property screen, Total Group Availability view.

This task is a step in Process of Managing Hospitality Event Inventory.
