Package Pricing and Availability Attributes

When the Package Pricing and Availability Attributes OPERA Control is active and the Redemption check box is not selected on the Package definition, Minimum and Maximum value fields can be specified for the number of Nights and Persons for each package pricing schedule.

When configuring package pricing schedules using the Package Pricing and Availability Attributes, keep in mind the following rules:

• Both the Min. and Max fields for both the Nights and Guests must have values defined for them. Only the Min and Max values for either the Nights or Guests cannot be specified.

• The Min and Max values cannot be left blank if a value has been defined for one or more of the fields. A numeric value must be entered. All of the fields can remain blank.

• The Min/Max range for either Nights or Guests can be the same as long as the other has its range

• There must be 1 record for each date range that has no Min/Max Nights and Min/Max Persons defined and this record will serve as a default when a reservation does not qualify to receive pricing based on any of the other package details sets that are based on Min/Max Nights and Min/Max Persons for the reservation date range. OPERA Cloud will automatically create such record when configuring package pricing.

• Validation for a reservation will be completed on a combination of the additional attributes.

  • The Stay Date falls between the Start Date and End Date of the package.

  • No of Nights fall between the Min/Max Nights value range.

  • No of Persons fall between the Min/Max value range.

Note:

When package pricing is configured, each record must have at least one of the aspects, such as Date Range, Min/Max Night range and Min/Max persons range, different so that every package pricing record can be uniquely identified and there is no complete overlap. While configuring package pricing records, if OPERA Cloud identifies that the record overlap occurs based on either Date Range, Min/Max Night range or Min/Max persons range, you will be prompted if automatic adjustment should take place and if you select Yes, then the current record being added will be saved and existing overlapping record will be removed.
