Channel Thresholds
The Channel Thresholds screen allows you to specify the percentage of inventory that will be sold through the channel. The open and close percentages represent the inventory points that determine when the hotel begins and stops selling your property. To access the Channel Thresholds screen, access it through ORS or OCM and select Configuration>Channel Threshold.
Enter one or more of the following criteria and select the Search button. The results appear in the grid at the bottom of the screen.
Channel. Select the channel from the list of values.
Property. Select the property from the list of values.
The Channel Thresholds grid displays the thresholds already setup based on the parameters you entered in the search criteria. Select the Edit button to edit an existing threshold, or select the New button to create a new threshold. Select the Delete button to delete an existing threshold.
Channel. Enter the channel.
Property. Enter the property.
Open Percent. This represents the BOOKING LIMIT being sent to the channel. Here, the property has the ability to specify how little or how much they wish to sell, should the system fall back to manual submittal. MICROS Systems recommends you enter a value of 100% if you wish for all inventory setup in the channel to be exposed to the channel partner, regardless of whether the connection has been broken or not.
Close Percentage. Enter the percentage of inventory that needs to be sold before sells to the channel are stopped (close availability for channel). MICROS Systems recommends you enter a value of 100%. For example, if a property is set to 100% closed, the property can be sold through the channel until the last room is booked. After the last room is booked, the property is considered closed and selling through the channel is no longer permitted.
Begin Date. Enter the begin date.
End Date. Enter the end date.
Inactive. Select whether the threshold is inactive.
