Setting Up Function Spaces, Sleeping Rooms, and Suites
This chapter describes how to set up function spaces, sleeping rooms, and suites. It includes the following topics:
About Function Space Administration
Function spaces represent the physical areas within a property that are used for group events such as sales meetings, training sessions, weddings, and so on. Typical function spaces include meeting rooms, banquet rooms, ballrooms, the foyer, and other defined areas on the property grounds. Function space can have many characteristics, but during the booking process, the most important characteristics include the following:
Setup style
Minimum and maximum capacity for each setup style
Physical area in square feet or square meters
Usable area in square feet or square meters
Other characteristics of the function space (ceiling height, cable TV availability, and so on) can also be significant when considering whether or not a function must occupy a specific room to meet customer requirements.
Specific space represents the function rooms that are physically located at a property. A specific space usually has a name, for example, the Golden Gate Salon. There are two types of specific space, indivisible space and configured space.
Roadmap for Setting Up Function Spaces, Sleeping Rooms, and Suites
This topic lists the procedures and processes that administrators typically perform to set up function spaces, sleeping rooms, and suites using Siebel Hospitality. Your company might follow a different process according to its business requirements.
To set up Hospitality function spaces, sleeping rooms, and suites, perform the following processes:
Process of Setting Up Function Spaces
This topic lists the procedures that administrators typically perform to set up function spaces with Siebel Hospitality. Your company might follow a different process according to its business requirements.
To set up function spaces, perform the following tasks:
This task is a step in Roadmap for Setting Up Function Spaces, Sleeping Rooms, and Suites.
Creating Indivisible Specific Spaces
An indivisible space is a function space that cannot be subdivided. Indivisible spaces are the basic components that a property offers for function space bookings. Examples are small salons, meeting rooms, and board rooms. Like any other function space, an indivisible space occupies a physical area and has capacity characteristics. Depending on the location in the property, indivisible space units can be grouped to form a larger, configured spaces.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Function Spaces.
To create an indivisible specific space
Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
In the Properties list, query for the required property record.
Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Specific Space view tab.
In the Specific Space list, create a new record and complete the appropriate fields, as required.
Some fields are described in the following table.
Field Comments Name
The name of the specific space.
Physical Area
The physical area of the specific space.
Backup Required
Indicates whether the specific space requires a backup function space. For more information about backup function spaces, see Marking a Space or Category as Requiring Backup.
Type
The product type. The default value is Indivisible. You can drill down on the Type field to define the features of the Type in the Product Key Features view.
Description
The description of the specific space.
Display Sequence
The sequence in which the function space appears in the Function Space Diary.
Compact Sequence
The sequence in which the function space appears in the Compact Diary view. For more information about the Compact Diary, see Function Space Diary Views.
Revenue Category
The revenue category associated with the specific space. This field is automatically populated with the Revenue Category value that is associated with the selected Revenue Sub Category.
If specific spaces are not associated with revenue categories, then revenue rollup for the specific spaces does not occur.
Revenue Sub Category
The revenue subcategory associated with the specific space.
Revenue Parent Category
The revenue parent category associated with the specific space. This field is automatically populated with the Revenue Parent Category value that is associated with the selected Revenue Sub Category.
Usable Area
The default value is the value of the Physical Area field. Can be changed to be less than the Physical Area if necessary.
Effective Start Date
Effective End Date
The date on which this space is available for use and the date on which this space is no longer available for use.
When effective start and end dates are defined for function spaces, these function spaces appear ineffective in the Function Space Diary on dates outside the effective period.
Floor Plan
An image of the floor plan for the specific space.
Special Location
Select to designate this function space as a special location. A Special Location designation is property-specific and user defined. When selected, indicates that the function space is not usually used as function space; or that the function space is used, sold, and so on only under special circumstances.
For example, an indoor pool might be a special location because it is booked infrequently. As another example, consider an off-site location that is sold and serviced by a specific hotel. Company XYZ has a large meeting facility in its building. Hotel ABC regularly sells this meeting facility to customers and provides food services. However, to book this space, there might be special requirements, or Hotel ABC might want to note that the function space is off site.
Creating Configured Specific Spaces
A configured space is a grouping of indivisible space components. Examples are ballrooms, banquet rooms, and large salons. The components of a configured space must be physically contiguous, sharing at least one wall.
Before you can create configured space, you must create indivisible spaces as described in Creating Indivisible Specific Spaces.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Function Spaces.
To create a configured specific space
Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
In the Properties list, query for the required property.
Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Specific Space view tab.
In the Specific Space list, create a new record, and complete the fields as described in Creating Indivisible Specific Spaces.
In the Components list, perform the following steps:
Click New.
In the Add Components dialog box, select an indivisible space.
Click OK.
The specific space type remains Indivisible (the default), until you add components. After you add specific space components, the Type field value of the parent specific space record is automatically updated to Configured.
Note: You cannot associate a specific space with itself. Also, a specific space can only be added once to a configured space. When you add a specific space as a component of a configured space, it is no longer available for selection in the Add Components dialog box.Repeat Step 5 of this procedure to select additional components to the configured space.
You must add at least two components for the space to be a configured space.
Setting Up Function Space Categories for a Property
A function space category is a group of specific spaces at a property with common characteristics, usually related to capacity. The groupings can consist of indivisible spaces and configured spaces. For example, you can define function space categories such as Small Meeting Room, Medium Meeting Room, and Large Meeting Room with corresponding specific spaces.
Setting up function space categories simplifies room bookings. During the booking process, customers typically do not care in which room a function is held, as long as sufficient capacity and square footage is guaranteed.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Function Spaces.
To create a function space category for a property
Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
In the Properties list, query for the required property.
Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Category view tab.
In the Category list, create a new record and complete the fields.
The following table describes the fields.
Field Comments Name
The name of the function space category.
Backup Required
Indicates whether the category requires backup function spaces. For more information about backup function spaces, see Marking a Space or Category as Requiring Backup.
Physical Area
The physical area of the category.
Type
Read only. Specifies a value of Category or Suite. The default value is Category.
Revenue Category
The revenue category associated with the function space category. This field is automatically populated with the Revenue Category value that is associated with the selected Revenue Sub Category.
If function space categories are not associated with revenue categories, then revenue rollup for the function spaces does not occur.
Revenue Sub Category
The revenue subcategory associated with the function space category.
Revenue Parent Category
The revenue parent category associated with the function space category. This field is automatically populated with the Revenue Parent Category value that is associated with the selected Revenue Sub Category.
Compact Sequence
The sequence in which the category will appear in the Compact Diary view. For more information about the Compact Diary, see Function Space Diary Views.
Property Unit of Measure
Read only. Shows the unit of measure value specified for the property.
Effective Start Date
Effective End Date
The date on which this category is available for use, and the date on which this category is no longer available for use.
When effective start and end dates are defined for categories, these categories appear ineffective in the Function Space Diary on dates outside the effective period.
Marking a Space or Category as Requiring Backup
Some function spaces require a backup space in case the function space cannot be used when required. For example, a wedding party might request to have photographs taken in a garden, or might ask to use a beach attached to the hotel for a beach wedding. However, because these are outdoor events, they might be affected by weather conditions. In these cases, it might be necessary to indicate that the function space requires a backup space.
The backup space to be used instead of a specific space can be specified when a quote involving the specific space is generated. For more information about backup spaces, see Managing Functions That Require Backup Space.
You can mark individual specific spaces as requiring backup spaces, or you can mark all the spaces associated with a function space category as requiring backup spaces.
This topic contains the following topics:

Mapping a Generic Room Type to Property-Specific Room Types
After generic sleeping room types are created, you can map the property-specific room sleeping room types to the generic sleeping room types. This mapping facilitates the conversion of generic room block items during the create quote process. This procedure assumes that the appropriate room types for the property have already been created.
To map a generic sleeping room type to property-specific sleeping room types, follow this procedure.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Sleeping Rooms.
To map a generic room type to property-specific room types
Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
In the Properties list, query for the required property.
Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Sleeping Rooms view tab.
Click the Map Sleeping Rooms link.
In the Generic Sleeping Room list, select a generic sleeping room type.
In the Sleeping Room list, associate one or more property-specific sleeping room types with the selected generic sleeping room type.
In the property-specific sleeping room type record, enter a value in the Percentage to Sell field. This value specifies the percentage of each specific sleeping room type to reserve for a single generic sleeping room type.
For example, suppose a generic sleeping room type named Generic Standard is mapped to two property-specific room types named Standard Smoking and Standard Non Smoking, with Percentage to Sell values of 25 percent and 75 percent, respectively. If a customer requests 100 Generic Standard sleeping rooms, the quote will reserve 25 rooms for Standard Smoking and 75 rooms for Standard Non Smoking.
Note: If a generic sleeping room is mapped to multiple property-specific sleeping room types, the sum of the Percentage to Sell values must equal 100 percent. If a generic sleeping room is mapped to a single property-specific sleeping room type, the Percentage to Sell value must be 100 percent.
Mapping a Run of House Room Type to Property-Specific Room Types
After property-specific sleeping room types are created, you can map run of house (ROH) sleeping room types to other property-specific sleeping room types. This allows users flexibility in assigning rooms to groups with nonspecific room requirements. This procedure assumes that property-specific room types for the property, including ROH room types, have already been created.
A property can have multiple ROH room types. A property-specific room type can only be assigned to one ROH room type.
To map a run of house (ROH) sleeping room type to one or more property-specific sleeping room types, follow this procedure.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Sleeping Rooms.
To map a run of house room type to property-specific room types
Navigate to the Property Administration screen, then the Properties view.
In the Properties list, query for the required property.
Click the link in the Property Name field, and then click the Sleeping Rooms view tab.
Click the Map ROH Rooms link.
In the ROH Sleeping Rooms list, select a run of house room type record.

Note: You can only associate a property-specific room type with one ROH room type.
Setting User Properties for Sleeping Room Mapping
You can set user properties to modify or enhance the Sleeping Room Mapping views in Siebel Hospitality. For more information about these user properties, see User Properties for Sleeping Room Mapping.
This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Sleeping Rooms.
Scenarios for Mapping Sleeping Rooms
This topic gives the following examples of how sleeping room mapping might be used. You might use sleeping room mapping differently, depending on your business model.
This topic includes the following scenarios:
Mapping Each Property-Specific Room Type to One Generic Room Type
A hotel uses the mapping shown in the following table.
| Generic Room Type | Property Specific Room Type | Distribution Percentage |
|---|---|---|
Generic Standard |
King City View |
75 percent |
Double City View |
25 percent |
|
Generic Deluxe |
King Ocean View |
50 percent |
Double Ocean View |
50 percent |
If a customer requests 50 Generic Standard rooms and 100 Standard Deluxe rooms, the mapping returns the quote as shown in the following table.
| Property Specific Room Type | Distribution Percentage | Number of Rooms | Rounding, if Applicable |
|---|---|---|---|
King City View |
75 percent of 50 rooms |
37.5 |
37 |
Double City View |
25 percent of 50 rooms |
12.5 |
13 |
King Ocean View |
50 percent of 100 rooms |
50 |
50 |
Double Ocean View |
50 percent of 100 rooms |
50 |
50 |
Mapping a Property-Specific Room Type to Two Generic Room Types
A different hotel uses the mapping shown in the following table.
| Generic Room Type | Property Specific Room Type | Distribution Percentage |
|---|---|---|
Generic Standard |
King City View |
75 percent |
Double City View |
25 percent |
|
Generic Deluxe |
Double City View |
25 percent |
King Ocean View |
25 percent |
|
Double Ocean View |
50 percent |
Notice that the Double City View room type has been mapped to both Generic Room types. If a customer requests 50 Generic Standard rooms and 100 Generic Deluxe rooms, the mapping returns the quote as shown in the following table.
| Property Specific Room Type | Distribution Percentage | Number of Rooms | Rounding, if Applicable |
|---|---|---|---|
King City View |
75 percent of 50 rooms |
37.5 |
37 |
Double City View |
50 percent of 25 rooms |
12.5 |
13 |
Double City View |
25 percent of 100 rooms |
25 |
25 |
King Ocean View |
25 percent of 100 rooms |
25 |
25 |
Double Ocean View |
50 percent of 100 rooms |
50 |
50 |
Because the Double City View room type is mapped to both the Generic Standard and Generic Deluxe room types, the distribution totals are combined. The quote displays one count for the combined room type, as shown in the following table.
| Property Specific Room Type | Distribution Percentage | Number of Rooms | Rounding, if Applicable |
|---|---|---|---|
King City View |
75 percent of 50 rooms |
37.5 |
37 |
Double City View |
50 percent of 25 rooms plus 25 percent of 100 rooms |
13 plus 25 |
38 |
King Ocean View |
50 percent of 100 rooms |
50 |
25 |
Double Ocean View |
50 percent of 100 rooms |
50 |
50 |
