Configuring Block Wash Schedules

Properties often set aside rooms for block reservations. As the block date approaches, you can reduce the number rooms in the block by transferring a number or percentage of them to general house availability. Block wash schedules enable this transfer. The End of Day final procedure activates the scheduled transfers.

When creating or editing wash schedules:

• Attach schedules to a block prior to the block's cutoff date.

• Configure only one detail record per wash schedule for each day prior to arrival.

• Set the Block Wash Schedule in Routine Management to Active.

To create a wash schedule:

1. From the Administration menu, select Block Management and then Wash Schedule.
2. Select Property, enter a wash code and click Search.
3. Click vertical ellipses and then click New.
4. On the Wash Schedule screen, select Property, enter a Code and a Description.
5. In the Schedule Details panel, click New.
6. Select Days prior to arrival. This determines when the system performs the wash. .
7. Select Wash by % or Wash by number of rooms. These determine either the percentage or number of rooms to return to house inventory.
8. Select number of rooms to wash per occupancy level or enter wash percentage, if Wash by % has been selected.
9. Click Save.
