Field Explanation

Original Block. This is what was/is in the Original grid for this date and Room Type.

Current Block. This is what is in the Current grid for this date and Room Type if the Current grid is populated. If it is not populated, this field will read zero.

Picked Up Number. The picked up reservations for this date and Room Type if the Pickup grid is populated. If it is not populated, this field will read zero.

Picked Up Percentage. The percentage of picked up reservations for this date and Room Type if the Pickup grid is populated. If it is not populated, this field will read zero.

Changes to Original. The changes made from the latest Original to the latest Current grid, if the Current grid is populated. If this Current grid is not populated, this field will read zero.

Cut Off. The cut off date for this date and Room Type. The cut off date is determined in the Business Block using either a fixed cut off date or a "rolling" cut off date.

This field will only be visible if the Application Settings>Blocks>Cutoff parameter is set to Y.

Note: When a block is created and a cutoff date is entered, then all the room types for all the dates receive the cutoff date that was entered. If a block is created and no cutoff date is entered, then all the room types for all the dates receive the arrival date as the cutoff date.
