Configuring Room Pools 

Prerequisites for Configuring Room Pool Mapping

Room Pools allow to you group room types together into more generic categories. Often the physical room types are too specific than what is required by sales agents creating inquiry (leads) blocks; room pools provide a way to enable a way to simply this. For example, you might create a Room Pool for STD:Standard and then map all the physical rooms type that fit this description, say Kings and Doubles, to room pool of "STD". When a sales agent books 5 STD rooms in a block, they actually book 5 rooms that are either Kings or Doubles. When configured you then map the physical room types to room pools, see Configuring Room Pool Mapping for more information.
