Block Cancellation Summary Report (rep_cancel_summary.rep)
Prerequisites for Cancellation Summary Report
The main purpose of the Cancellation Summary report is to show all groups canceled or lost for a specific cancellation date range or a specific arrival date. It can be filtered and/or sorted by cancellation reason or destination “Lost to” and therefore represents an excellent tool for pinpointing weaknesses or disadvantages the hotel might have in groups or catering operations.

Include All Events. If checked, all lost/canceled events are calculated into the lost catering revenue figures. If not checked, only the events canceled on the same day as the catering status on business block was changed to CAN are calculated into the catering revenue figures. Events that were canceled prior (on a different date) to the catering status being CAN would therefore be excluded if the check box is flagged.

REPORT DATA

Business block contact name, follow up date and the destination (lost to) are also listed.

-
If a Company profile is attached to the business block, the Company profile name appears.
-
If a Company profile is not attached to the business block, but a Travel Agent is attached, the Travel Agent profile name appears.
-
If neither a Company profile nor a Travel Agent profile is attached to the business block, and a Source profile is attached, the Source profile name appears.
Room revenue on this report is as entered on the block, not taking into account taxes or packages that might be included in the booked rate. Catering revenue is calculated downwards cascading, meaning if there is actual revenue, actual revenue prints; if there is no actual revenue, guaranteed revenue is checked and printed if existing. If no guaranteed revenue is found, expected revenue is checked and printed. If there is no expected revenue, forecasted revenue is printed.
If only the rooms part of a booking is canceled, but catering stays on production status, the block appears on the report, but only the room night and room revenue figures show as canceled.
If only the catering part of a block is canceled, but rooms are still active, only the catering figures show as canceled on the report.
If only some events are canceled, but the catering status of the block is still active, the block will not appear at all on the report.
The last page of the report summarizes the following data by block status: Room nights, room revenue, catering food and beverage revenue, catering other revenue, total catering revenue and total revenue.
It is possible to print the report for statuses other than the return-to-inventory statuses, but no revenue prints in that case (as no revenue was lost if the booking is not lost or canceled).
