S&C Room Type Mapping

Sales and Catering generally has a different Room Type naming convention than PMS. PMS Room Types are more specific than what is required by Sales and Catering; for example, in S&C you might create a Room Type called STD. You would then map all the PMS rooms that fit this description, say Kings and Doubles, to STD. When someone from the Sales department sold 5 STD rooms they really sold 5 rooms that are either Kings or Doubles.
