Using the Property Calendar

Prerequisites for Using Property Calendar

The Property Calendar provides a quick overview of the local area events and day types setup for specific dates.

• Calendar events identify local area events which may have an impact on your property operations and occupancy levels. For more information, see Configuring (Calendar) Event Codes. Property events are indicated on the Room Diary and available via the calendar icon in the Look to Book Sales Screen. 

• Day Types are used to adjust (increase or decrease) the price (rate amount) for selected rate codes on selected dates. (Available when the Day Type OPERA Control is active).

For current and future dates the Maximum Availability figure is displayed in the top left corner of each date in the monthly and list views of the calendar. Double-click the Maximum Available figure to launch Property Availability  for the selected date. 

You can select various view icons to change the Property Calendar view:

• Day: Show only one day at a time

• Week: Show only one week at a time

• Month: Show one month at a time (this is the default view)

• List: Show the calendar events as separate lines in a list
